Data Challenge Project

Public data from: beta.sam

If you start with contract data, know this:

Contract Opportunities is a government-wide list of notices of proposed contract actions expected to exceed $25,000. Notices include solicitations, pre-solicitations, sole source justifications, awards and other notices related to the acquisition of supplies and services.

Using this project

This project assumes that you have some libraries installed

  • tidyverse is required
  • dlookr is used for a quick snapshot of data

File Structure

  • /data: directory will hold data locally - dir should be empty on github unless we generate some local data or get some small data files that are easier to keep (do not commit large files here, .gitignore should prevent this)
  • /analysis: directory will hold analysis scripts
  • /helpers: directory holds helper scripts
  • /outputs: directory holds outputs
  • /discuss: directory for discussion of topics and ideas - most intermediate products should probably go here
