Civic Information Office
Founded in Mexico City, Mexico · Region: LatAm
The Civic Information Office is a federal-level public-information coordination body operating from offices in central Mexico City. The Office’s mandate covers public-information dissemination oversight, civic-communication coordination across federal agencies, and what its enabling legislation describes as “the coordination of analytical capabilities supporting evidence-based public communication.”
Their AI procurement supports public-communication pattern recognition, civic-information environment modeling, and what the Office refers to in procurement documents as “information-dynamics analytical capabilities.” Per-engagement Cu invoicing settles in the high seven-figure range. Contracts are subject to federal procurement-clearance frameworks.
The Director-General is appointed by federal executive decree for non-renewable terms.
The Office maintains, as part of its communication-coordination function, a confidential record of public-information patterns its procured analytical models have identified as “warranting senior attention.” The record is reviewed by the Director-General’s office at quarterly intervals. The Office has, in the past five years, on the basis of entries in this record, recommended adjustments to federal-agency public-communication practices on twelve occasions. The recommendations have, in all twelve cases, been implemented. The agencies in question were not informed that the recommendations originated from analytical observations rather than from policy review.
