Government procurement refers to the process by which governments at all levels, for conducting daily administrative activities or providing public services, purchase goods, projects, and services from domestic and international markets for government departments or affiliated organizations. This process occurs under fiscal supervision, through statutory methods and procedures, including open tendering and fair competition, with direct payment to suppliers by financial departments. Its essence lies in the organic integration of market competition mechanisms and fiscal expenditure management, characterized primarily by legal regulation of procurement activities. Government procurement mainly includes tender procurement, limited competitive procurement, and competitive negotiation.
To support research in related fields, CnOpenData has derived extended basic information of winning bidders in government procurement by matching suppliers from government procurement data with the latest year's industrial and commercial records. This dataset includes basic information and shareholder details of winning bidders as of the latest year, such as Taxpayer Identification Number, enterprise address, registered capital (注册资本), registration date, industry information, coordinates (经纬度), business scope (经营范围), shareholder name (股东名称), shareholding ratio (持股比例), subscribed capital contribution ratio (认缴出资额比例), and shareholder type (股东类型).
