Analytics
Visual analysis of government spending patterns. Supplier concentration, departmental waste metrics, and pandemic-era contract velocity.
🎯 Department Waste Scorecard
Comparing departments across contract volume, average value, missing supplier rates, and COVID-era contract concentration. Values are normalized to the highest in each category.
🏢 Supplier Concentration
Top 40 government suppliers by total contract value. Box size represents total contract value. Red-bordered suppliers have known MP connections (directorships, shareholdings).
💉 Pandemic Contract Velocity
Each dot is a government contract awarded during the pandemic era (Jan 2020 – Jun 2023). X-axis = days from pandemic start. Y-axis = contract value. Hover for details.
📖 Methodology
Department Scorecard:Departments with 30+ contracts compared across five axes. Values are normalized to the maximum in each category. Missing supplier % reflects contracts where the supplier field is null, empty, or marked “Not Applicable.”
Supplier Concentration: Top 40 government suppliers by deduplicated contract value (framework ceiling values counted once per distinct title-supplier pair). MP-connected suppliers identified via the Companies House connections table (directorships, significant control).
Pandemic Contract Velocity: Contracts awarded between January 2020 and June 2023. Excludes placeholder supplier names and meta-list entries. Deduplicated per title-supplier pair.
