Abstract

This paper is aimed at conceiving and testing a method to inspect the level of adoption of policies regarding Open Government Data based on the analysis of the Audit Court’s transparency portal of Brazilian states and the Federal District. The method establishes a score for public data of audit offices in the domains of People Management, Budget, Biddings and Contracts. We herein analyze the data from the State Audit Office of Brazil, and we discuss issues related to the method. We concluded that, despite the efforts of the audit offices, there is still a lot to do in order to reach a quality level of the public information according to the conceptual and legal devices audit offices are subject to.
