Where information about Mexican companies and government procurement
becomes clarity for decision-makers.
Transparency Studio Mx helps international organizations understand Mexican companies and their relationships with local and federal government. Using public records and Mexico’s transparency platforms, we provide verified information and context so decision-makers can work with greater clarity.
Due diligence support: When assessing potential partners, suppliers, or government related projects in Mexico, we gather public records and procurement documentation to provide clarity before decisions are made.
Support for contract disputes, compliance questions, or background research involving Mexican companies or government entities. We collect and organize public records so legal teams can work with better documentation
Fact-checking, document searches, and contextual research on Mexican issues for investigative projects or documentary and fiction films. If needed, we provide field reporting in Mexico.
Transparency Studio Mx is run by Daniel Melchor, an investigative journalist based in Mexico City, whose work has appeared in The New York Times and collaborated in documentary and fiction projects for platforms such as Netflix and Warner.
A client participated in a Mexican tender and now faces questions about transparency or process irregularities.
How we help:
We review tender documentation, public audit reports, and official correspondence to map what happened — using only public, legal sources.
A client hears that a Mexican or international company may have been sanctioned by customs authorities, but the details are unclear. They need to confirm whether a sanction actually occurred, when it was issued, and the reason behind it — as well as whether it remains active or was later resolved.
How we help:
We track the sanction through public records, customs bulletins, transparency portals, and related regulatory filings. We identify when the sanction was issued, the legal basis cited, and any subsequent actions (appeals, resolutions, or removals), organizing the documentation into a clear timeline.
A small inconsistency appears, but the team doesn’t know which Mexican documents exist or how to access them.
How we help:
We identify relevant registries, obtain documents, and explain what they show — without replacing the legal or financial analysis.
The team needs local research support — document retrieval, interviews, or guidance on where records live.
How we help:
We provide document-based research and, when needed, in-country reporting to strengthen the final story.
