4. Methodology
The Portuguese implementation of CIS 2012 covers the core target population.
Some core target population with more detailed breakdowns (NACE divisions 15- 18, 22-25, 28, 32-33, 38, 46, 49, 58 and 63) and some additional NACE mentioned in European recommendations (NACE divisions 42, 43, 47.1, 69, 74-75) and NACE 86 on full voluntary basis.
All three stratification variables (the economic activities in accordance with NACE, the size-classes and Regional aspects at NUTS 2 level) were used.
A stratified sample of 8,045 enterprises, representing a total population of 21,061, resulted in a response rate until now of 81.4%.

Difficulties experienced in the implementation of public procurement questions in Portuguese CIS 2012
During the period of CIS 2012 data collection, most of the enterprises didn’t have any difficulties answering questions about public sector procurement.
When calling the support line, the enterprises expressed more difficulties in innovation concepts and issues about expenditures and innovation activities.
In Portuguese CIS 2012 data, we didn’t have non responses in questions related with public sector procurement, because the online platform was designed so that all Eurostat’s harmonized questions were mandatory.
