About these numbers
Spending is the Checkbook NYC spending export: each row is one line item, and every row is counted. Amounts are Check Amount; dates are Issue Date.
Year-to-date figures add up each fiscal year from July 1 through the same day of the year as the latest payment in the file.
Contracts are the Checkbook NYC export of registered contracts. Value is the current amount. Open means the contract's end date is on or after the latest payment date.
Expense categories are shown as the city records them, except that the misspelled "Office furiture" is counted as "Office furniture".

About these numbers
Source: the Checkbook NYC export of every vendor's payments in five expense categories, one row per line item. "Ebony, any category" adds up Ebony's payments in the same fiscal year from the spending file on the first tab.
Not open to compete: payments where Checkbook withholds the vendor for privacy or security, payments to government bodies, and payments to the state prison and disability industries that get priority in public purchasing. Everything else is the open market.
Certified M/WBE or not comes from the file's M/WBE Category: a minority or women-owned category counts as certified. Since January 2024 the city's Procurement Policy Board rules let agencies buy from city-certified M/WBEs without formal competition, up to the limit shown above for each purchase.
Data processing supplies is mostly software licences and education apps, and computer equipment is mostly IT resellers, so they aren't like-for-like with what Ebony sells. They are off by default.
