Government Online on CD-ROM

A copy of the Government Online Database will be provided on CD-ROM. The database is separated into different sections according to category and region. It is supplied in Access and Excel format. Different formats - including StarCalc and Comma Separated Text - are also available.

Creation of Nationwide Tailored Databases (Optional)

We can create a tailored database from our current information sources. However, if we do not possess the requisite information, we can create a new tailored database by implementing an additional search into our database update procedure. Information would then be provided incrementally on a region by region basis.

All services are provided as part of a 12 months’ subscription to Government Online Database Service. Numerous business opportunities will arise over the course of a year, and we are well-placed to help companies take advantage of them. The marketplace is enormous and public bodies are constantly looking for companies that can supply them with the best value for money.

The cost is £650 for the standard service. To subscribe, please click here
