How We Verify Data
We work with official documents from the Government and local self-government bodies, public finance portals (OpenBudget, Spending, BOOST), the Prozorro public procurement system, Treasury reports and other official records. All collected data go through several processing stages: structuring, payment reconciliation and discrepancy resolution. When inconsistencies are identified, we send formal requests to responsible public authorities or direct budget holders.
