Corporate Research and Development, and Health sector services

With the acquisition of Content Complete Ltd in January 2010, we have enhanced our service offering to include negotiation, licensing,  and related services for the following types of organisations in the pharmacutical, biotechnology and health sectors:

  • Global pharmaceutical and biotech companies
  • NHS regional consortia
  • Health related consortia

Our core focus is negotiating preferential access rights, and establishing favourable terms and conditions for the users of digital information in line with your strategic objectives. This includes:

  • obtaining the best possible prices
  • ensuring the widest possible access
  • delivering the most favourable licence terms and conditions

In representing your organisation or consortium in direct negotiations with publishers, we attempt to achieve all of the above, in addition to providing regular feedback and reporting on the status of discussions, and delivering an agreement that meets your financial, technical, and legal requirements.

We also offer a range of other, related services, which can be broadly described under the following headings:

  • Usage data collection and analysis
  • Training, workshops, and seminars
  • Planning and consultancy for licensing digital content
  • Placing the organisational requirements in the context of the digital information industry
  • Helping you define your digital content licensing strategy
  • Health checks, such as evaluating existing agreements
  • Developing a project plan to support your information strategy
  • Migration to electronic only access
  • Model licence preparation
  • Payment and administration
