Abstract
Public procurement is a large market affecting almost every organisation and individual. Governments need to ensure efficiency, transparency, and accountability, while creating healthy, competitive, and vibrant economies. In this context, we built a platform, consisting of a set of modular APIs and ontologies to publish, curate, integrate, analyse, and visualise an EU-wide, cross-border, and cross-lingual procurement knowledge graph. We developed end-user tools on top of the knowledge graph for anomaly detection and cross-lingual document search. This paper describes our experiences and challenges faced in creating such a platform and knowledge graph and demonstrates the usefulness of Semantic Web technologies for enhancing public procurement.
