The Crown Commercial Service has approved Refernet to be available via their G-Cloud service. Refernet is now listed.
What is the G-Cloud?
The G-Cloud is a digital market, provided by the Crown Commercial Service (CCS), where public sector organisations can safely procure the services they need. Visit our G-Cloud entry here
What the CCS says:
“Suppliers are carefully evaluated during the tender process and pre-agreed terms and conditions offer customers sound contractual safeguards”.
“The Crown Commercial Service (CCS) works with both departments and organisations across the whole of the public sector to ensure maximum value is extracted from every commercial relationship and improve the quality of service delivery. The CCS goal is to become the “go-to” place for expert commercial and procurement services”.

Priced to suit you
Our pricing is therefore based just as much on what you can afford as it is on the coverage you need, and how you plan to make use of the system.
Regions & Cities
As well as our core user group who use Refernet in towns and Cities, we now have groups of Citizens Advice using Refernet to join referral activity together across whole boroughs and counties. They are running a single Refernet system to give them connectivity, flexibility and cost savings within their regions, making Refernet cheaper (per CA) with system coverage across larger populations. These networks are often using the Regional functionality as well, to give greater operational flexibility and reporting.
We now have Greater Manchester, West Lancashire, and all of Wales using this model, with several more large regions on the way.
National networks
Refernet also caters for organisations who need to create a national network. Additional functionality allows for zoning where required, so that agencies can be grouped. Reporting by zone and the ability to make agencies only visible within certain zones is also possible, and even on an agency by agency basis.
