This report aims to evaluate the effectiveness and fit of open contracting reforms to LMIC contexts and to provide
recommendations on how and when countries should pursue open contracting reforms. This objective was broken
down into the following questions on reform outcomes and reform drivers.
1. How advanced and comprehensive is the legal framework for open contracting? How did it evolve in the last 10-
15 years?
2. To what extent are the laws relating to public procurement transparency and accountability implemented? How
did the comprehensiveness and quality of publicly available government contracting data evolve in the last 10-15
years?
3. What is the political-economic context in which public procurement occurs? Who are the main actors in
government and civil society, what are their power relations and interests? Which actors have driven or blocked
open contracting reform?
4. Which conditions and institutional capacities have facilitated or hindered public procurement transparency
reform?
5. Which reform strategies have proved most successful and unsuccessful in which contexts? What were the
typical time frames and pathways for successful reform that can inform design of future advocacy strategies?
