Public Sector Construction Demand Database (PSCDD)
The PSCDD acts facilitates the monitoring of construction programmes and projects from conception via construction completion to operation. This is achieved by collecting data at three distinct stages, spatially separated by time. The first stage (Future Demand) collects forward look or demand data, the second stage (Achieving Excellence (AE) / Project Performance) collects performance data on projects under construction, and the third stage (Asset performance in use) collects data on project during operation. The performance in use system is in the initial stages of planning. Access to the Public Sector Construction Database is provided via the Government Securer Internet, (GSI). For more information, please visit the OGC website.

Public Sector Finance (PS-PES)
This application has been designed to collect annual procurement category spend from Departments.

Register of Surplus Public Sector Land (HCA)
This provides a single reference point for all participating public sector organisations on the available national supply of surplus land and helps to ensure that wider government objectives are factored into land disposal.

Disposing agencies are required by Government Accounting Rules to place details on the Register when a site is declared surplus. After a 40 working day window for departments and public sector agencies to identify new uses for the land it can be released to the open market. If the site can be used beneficially elsewhere in the public sector it may be transferred at market value and brought back into use.

It captures up-to-date and consistent information on the status of public sector capital procurements from a wide range of projects.
