An Internet site that allows people to search for information on North Carolina state government contracts and grant awards is up and running.
Gov. Beverly Perdue announced that the first phase of the Web site www.ncopenbook.gov went online Monday.
The site has a database of about 2,500 contracts and 5,000 grants that can be searched using keywords such as vendors and grant recipients. The state budget office is working so that more transactions will be included later this year, including state agency performance measures.
Perdue said during last fall's gubernatorial campaign that she would create such a site to improve transparency in government. She signed an executive order to order its creation two days after she was sworn in.
