The Washington Service can provide customized Internet-based channel check applications to collect publicly available data from research, social media, and corporate websites. Although each website is unique, The Washington Service has implemented a generic, scalable IT architecture that allows us to rapidly prototype bespoke projects for our clients. Our data gathering is teamed with our legendary quality assurance honed from years of work with Insider Trading data.

Some examples of our electronic channel checking projects include:

• Daily surveys of all transactions for a major online retail site
• Monthly store location and menu surveys for a nationwide player in the fresh fast food business
• Periodic surveys of patient portals for a medical billing firm
• Daily Chinese commodity pricing
• Weekly surveys of cabin prices for multiple cruise line operators

We have more than 30 years of experience performing customized, high-quality research, including primary data gathering, competitive intelligence research, and confidential inquiries.

Examples of our projects include:

• providing customized industry analysis
• obtaining information an organization cannot access and/or acquire
• gathering and maintaining proprietary data series
• monitoring legislative and regulatory activity and its impact on the market

The Washington Service’s custom insider trading and EDGAR data feeds and formats offer tailored solutions that facilitate integration of our data with clients’ in-house systems.

Examples of our data services include:

• Custom data fields
• Real-time programmatic access to our insider trading and EDGAR databases by data feeds
• Databases as XML-based Web services, by file transfer protocol (FTP), and as proprietary application programming interfaces (APIs), among other formats

Custom data formats allow clients to specify exactly what information they require, how individual fields are presented, and the manner in which the data are delivered.
