Applies changes for upgrade issue 376 to include supplies, works and services codelist.
Based on issue #376
The procurement category codelist is used to indicate the primary focus of a contracting process. Where a contracting process covers more than one of the options below, publishers should either:
- (a) select the category that accounts for the greatest value; or
- (b) use the 'mixed' code;
depending on the available data in source systems.
Where a publisher is using the code 'consultingServices', then the 'services' code should be used only for non-consulting services. However, users should note that not all publishers are able to make this distinction from their source data.

---|---|---|
supplies | Goods and supplies | The primary object of this contracting process involves physical or electronic goods or supplies (such as electricity) |
works | Works | The primary object of this contracting process involves construction, repair, rehabilitation, demolition, restoration or maintenance of some asset or infrastructure. |
