A CRM built for public affairs.
GovConnex Relationships is a public affairs CRM for stakeholder management, built for the work rather than sales. Your stakeholders, meetings, notes and follow-ups sit in one place the whole team shares, joined to a directory of every MP, peer and member of the devolved parliaments, with each person’s record beside your notes. Before any meeting, ask for a brief: what the person has said on your issues, their roles and committees, and your history with them, each point sourced.

Common questions
Something else? Talk to our teamWhat is a public affairs CRM?
A record of the people in government you work with: who they are, what you’ve discussed, what you asked for and what happens next. GovConnex’s comes with the people already in it, every MP, peer and member of the devolved parliaments, and joins each one to what they’ve said in Parliament.
Why not use our sales CRM?
A sales CRM is built around deals. Public affairs runs on issues and relationships over years, with people whose roles change at every reshuffle and election. GovConnex keeps the directory current and shows each person’s record in parliament beside your notes.
Can we bring our contacts across?
Yes. Import them from a spreadsheet or an export of your current CRM, and we’ll help when you start.
Is there a mobile app?
Yes, for iOS and Android. Scan a business card into a contact, log a meeting, call or note as it happens, look anyone up in the directory, and read a brief before you walk in.
Does it work with our calendar and email?
Yes. Export your planner to Outlook or Google Calendar. To log a meeting from your inbox, BCC your logging address.
Who can see our notes?
Only your organisation. Admins can also choose who sees what, team by team, depending on your plan.
What goes into a meeting brief?
What the person has said on your issues, their roles and committees, and your team’s history with them, each point with its source.
Can it replace our CRM?
Many teams use GovConnex as their stakeholder CRM. Your contacts come across by spreadsheet, and if you also run Salesforce or Dynamics, we’ll work with you on connecting them.
