Vendor-scope-drift findings

What we cannot tell you yet

Three publishing gaps in the Alberta open-data surface limit how far this deep-dive can go. Each is a real gap in current publishing, not an aspiration.

Amendment linkage

Alberta publishes contract amendments as standalone rows; the linkage back to the parent contract is not in the open data. Without it, this page cannot show a vendor's amendment-creep trajectory or aggregate amended dollars to the original award.

Bid history

The sole-source register publishes the chosen vendor and a justification code, not the bidders that competed (or were dis-invited). A vendor's competitive-pressure profile cannot be reconstructed from the public record.

Line-item / unit-price detail

Contracts publish a single total dollar value. Unit prices, hours billed, materials cost, and rate cards are not in the open data, so price-per-unit comparisons across vendors and ministries are not feasible from this disclosure alone.
