Connectivity, support, hosting and security have different constraints. Start with critical services, data and acceptable recovery time.

| Need | Questions to examine |
|---|---|
| Support | Covered equipment, support hours and authorised access. |
| Cloud and telecoms | Capacity, contractual location, dependencies and exit terms. |
| Cybersecurity | Assessment scope, confidentiality, deliverables and remediation follow-up. |
Availability commitments need a period, measurement method and exclusions. An untested backup does not demonstrate recovery capability.
No. Support restores or maintains a service; an audit examines risks within an agreed scope. Ask about methodology, relevant qualifications and how findings will be addressed.

Open the official siteNo resource matches these filters.
A directory entry is a starting point. Match the resource to a defined need, check the original source and compare approaches before committing a budget.
Write down the audience, the problem, the expected result and the deadline. A website redesign, a security review and a data project call for different evidence and skills.
Open the organisation’s own site. Check its legal identity, the scope of its services, the date of its guidance and how to contact it. For public data, review the publisher, licence and update frequency.
Ask providers about relevant work, delivery method, responsibilities, accessibility, handover and support. Compare proposals against the same brief and note what is excluded.
A public resource may help you learn or benchmark; a provider may carry out a mission. Inclusion here does not imply endorsement, affiliation or current availability. Read the expert selection guide for a fuller checklist.
The filters group different types of resources. These notes explain the intended use and the checks to make before acting.
Choose this category when the need concerns a website, application, integration or long-term technical maintenance. Distinguish a delivery provider from a public guide explaining how to prepare the project.
Before you decide: Ask about ownership of the domain and code, accessibility checks, security updates, documentation and the support plan.
Scope the workUse this category for brand messages, visual identity, editorial production and channels. A communication plan should name its audience and the action it is meant to support.
Before you decide: Compare examples of published work, approval steps, usage rights and how consistency will be maintained across formats.
Plan contentExplore this category for infrastructure, connectivity, cybersecurity and operational support. Start with an inventory of essential services and who can access them.
Before you decide: Confirm response arrangements, backups, recovery responsibilities, subcontractors and the boundary between support and security advice.
Review security basicsFind public datasets, APIs and guidance for analysis or a controlled AI experiment. A catalogue entry describes a source; it does not automatically make the data suitable for a decision.
Before you decide: Check licence, update frequency, coverage, missing values, access conditions and whether a human can review consequential outputs.
Choose indicatorsLook here for search visibility, campaigns, email and measurement guidance. Begin with a target audience and a meaningful outcome before selecting a channel.
Before you decide: Ask which baseline will be used, how consent and tracking work, and who will maintain content after a campaign.
Build a content planUse networks to discover organisations, training or support. An entry in a network is a lead for further checking, not proof of availability or quality.
Before you decide: Verify membership criteria where relevant, the person who will carry out the work and the terms of any proposed introduction.
Compare specialistsThe date records an automated availability check, not a guarantee of data freshness, service quality or eligibility. Some publishers block automated requests. For each dataset or API, check the actual licence, update date, coverage and access terms before reuse.
