Spending for the year
What the Uruguayan state bought in 2023
In 2023 public procurement totalled $ 186.6 billion, up 2.3% on 2022 in current pesos. Inflation accounts for $ 11.5 billion of that: net of it, spending fell 4% in real terms. A single contract is worth 2.3 times the whole year's real change: CONSTRUCCION DE CARRETERA (Dirección Nacional de Vialidad → AUTOVIAS CINCO SOCIEDAD ANONIMA EN FORMACIÓN, $ 17 billion).
Every amount is converted at its own month's exchange rate and deflated by the BCU Unidad Indexada. The series measures purchasing published as open data, not the national budget.
From one year to the next
Each year's change, split into parts that add up exactly. The previous year is first re-priced to this year's price level; what remains is real change, and that is split between bodies entering or leaving the record and those present in both years.
