ABSTRACT
Digital transformation refers to the changes associated with the application of digital technology in all aspects of human society. The digital transformation in a specific function or organization implies that digital usages enable new types of innovation and creativity in a particular domain, rather than simply enhance and support the traditional methods. There are not many papers describing the potential use of Open Data in procurement. Almost all of them refer to public procurement. The Open Data, literally "open data", is the school of thought that aims to address the need to be legally entitled to have data "open" or freely reusable by any user, for any reason. There are many sources of Open Data, such as public administration data, weather reports, social networks, reports on news services, and in general data on the web. The procurement organizations are at the verge of some dramatic changes in their characteristics.
