    I want to submit a request for some information from the organisation, in relation to their contract's register. The FULL contract register should display all the organisations existing/live contracts I would like the register to display the following columns/headings:

    1. Contract Reference

    2. Contract Title

    3. Procurement Category

    1. For those organisations planning to make an exemption around spend, the spend information I have requested is an overall figure and I am not requesting a complete breakdown of services relating to the spend.

    2. If the organisation has a CRM system or a similar system, there should be a facility to download and extract contract data.

    3. You may forward me a Weblink to a portal to download the contract register, please make sure all of the organisation's contracts are provided as doing prior research I have found that most organisations have only uploaded a small portion of all of their contracts.

    Please do not think that this is the only information I require if you could provide me with more information that would be great.

    Contract Data/API Contact Details

    13. Can you also provide me with contact details of the person responsible for the actual contract's register or someone responsible for API? [Name, Job Title, Telephone, Email Address] At the very least provide me with their actual job title.
