Northern Light Launches Government Procurement Resource

Northern Light (www.northernlight.com) launched the first hosted
market research portal specifically geared to help companies identify
sales opportunities with federal, state, and local governments
throughout the U.S. The SinglePoint Government Opportunities Edition
indexes a broad array of government buying intention announcements,
reports, and news stories from authoritative research sources
specializing in government procurement. Government specific sources
include Centurion Research Solutions, EagleEye, Infobase Publishers,
and FedBizOps.gov.

Powered by Northern Light’s search engine, SinglePoint Government
Opportunities Edition provides a unified search index of targeted
government RFIs, RFPs, and contract awards. Also included in the
unified search index are 85,000 reports from 20 information technology
(IT) market research firms such as Datamonitor, Forrester, and Frost &
Sullivan, and 20,000 stories daily from 6,000 Northern Light Business
News sources such as The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal, and
The Washington Post. When users find opportunities or documents that
they wish to explore, they can click through directly to the
opportunity and associated research at the provider’s site (if they
are subscribers to the services) or directly to the document on the
publication’s site if the desired material is from Northern Light
Business News.

SinglePoint is a turnkey enterprise search application that provides
centralized search, analysis, and access for diverse sources of
internal, external, and licensed market intelligence. Offered in a
secure, hosted, user self-service portal environment, SinglePoint is
customized to the precise market research and competitive intelligence
purposes of each of Northern Light’s enterprise clients.

SinglePoint Government Opportunities Edition is available immediately
from Northern Light. Pricing starts at $96,000 per year.
