ca_procurement_department

Pack: ca-procurement · Connect: https://pipeworx.io/mcp (see Connect below for a single-pack URL)

No MCP client? Call it directly: GET https://gateway.pipeworx.io/v1/tools/ca_procurement_department for the schema, then POST the same URL with its arguments for the data.

Profile a California STATE department/agency’s procurement spend from the SCPRS purchase-order data on data.ca.gov: total dollars, purchase-order count, top suppliers (vendors) it buys from, top commodity categories it spends on, and a by-fiscal-year breakdown. Matches the department name as a case-insensitive substring. Answers “what does the CA Department of Justice buy and from whom”, “which agencies spend the most”. This is CALIFORNIA STATE data (not federal).
