INTEGRA: Colombian Institutional Legal Compliance and Corruption Risk Index

INTEGRA 2.0 is a composite index for measuring legal compliance and institutional corruption risk across Colombian public entities. It is calculated by equating indicators for institutional CAPACITY with indicators of external THREAT, using secondary data collected by various state bodies. The dataset is hosted by the Colombian open data portal www.datos.gov.co and was last updated on February 9, 2026.

Use Cases

• Predicting an entity's overall INTEGRA score using capacity indicators like GESTION_DOCUMENTAL, TALENTO_HUMANO, and CONTROL_INTERNO.
• Analyzing regional patterns of legal compliance by joining entity data with geographic identifiers like DEPARTAMENTO and CODIGO_DANE_MUNICIPIO.
• Clustering public entities by SECTOR and functional performance across dimensions like CONTRATACION, PLANEACION, and TRANSPARENCIA.
• Correlating the external AMENAZA (threat) index with internal capacity scores to identify high-risk entities.

Strengths

• The index synthesizes 15 distinct performance and threat indicators into a single composite score (INTEGRA).
• Data includes precise geographic identifiers (CODIGO_DANE_MUNICIPIO, DEPARTAMENTO) for spatial analysis.
• Multiple machine-readable formats are available, including CSV, JSON, XML, and RDF.

Limitations

• Row count and dataset size are unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
• Description metadata is limited; actual data quality requires manual inspection after download.
