Limits
City of Chicago awards only (not Cook County, the state or federal contracts). The amount is the awarded value of the original award (revision 0) of at least US$1,000, often over a whole contract period; it is not a unit price and not an amount paid yet. Purchases are recognised from the short free-text description; an unusual description is missed. Aggregates only; vendors are never named.
Rule
A figure built from records is shown only when at least 5 records sit behind it; official statistics are shown as such, with their reference period. See how we earn trust and the method.
