Five rules, applied to every row. A consortium award is counted once, with every member named — two of the awards here went to groups of bidders, and counting the companies instead of the contracts would inflate the record. A subcontractor's work is never added to the prime contract's value. A framework agreement is labelled a ceiling, because that is what the organiser says it is. Nothing enters without a source we have read and a date we checked it. And there is no total, because an incomplete ledger cannot produce one honestly.

The scope is the organiser's own procurement — contracts awarded by EXPO 2027 Belgrade d.o.o. National pavilions are each funded by the participating country and are tracked separately, on the pavilion profiles; Serbian state construction contracts awarded by ministries, including the host country's own pavilion, are a different pot of money and are not mixed in here.
