Procurement Intelligence public preview
The current public preview is bounded to the documented World Bank structured-source perimeter. Expansion to other source systems is not silently included in the headline record count.
Insights / current conditions
Short notes for things that changed before a full paper was warranted.
This is not a generic blog. Entries are intended for release notes, definition changes, data revisions, source changes and other timely observations that can be tied to an inspectable source record.
Price Observatory remains a release candidate
The current Observatory state is versioned and source-linked, but release-candidate status remains distinct from a frozen independently validated release.
AI × Labor remains in collection
Firm-level source evidence continues to be accumulated under a coding schema. Collection state, second-coding state and final publication state are deliberately separated.
Publishing rule
An Insights item should be short, dated, source-linked and narrow enough to update without pretending to be a research report. If a claim needs methodology, robustness or a substantial evidence synthesis, it belongs in Publications instead.
