We had to look at what information the public was entitled to and how we could facilitate its access so that anyone could find their way around without having to jump through hoops or go through complex processes. It is easy to find things on the website: for instance, we created a section of the site entitled “Pre-Qualified Supplier Data”, where we provide information someone would need to work with other suppliers and see who has access to contracts, who is already prequalified and who would for instance have gone through various processes in order to deal with us.
The notions of open data and open government to our mind consist rather in trying to put into our website all of the information small and medium businesses need to deal with us.
