Questions about catalogues

What are the requirements for publishing a catalogue?

The catalogue publisher must be an IGH member. The catalogue data must comply with the DataExpert^® standard. The IGH office supports members with all possible delivery formats to fulfil the DataExpert^®requirements.

Who can download catalogues?

All interested parties.

Catalogue data can be imported directly online in the industry applications used.

However, all catalogues can also be applied directly under DataSelect.ch or in the DataSelectApp (Android / iPhone).

What are the costs when I download a catalogue?

There are no costs for the catalogue user, neither for downloading nor for using the catalogue data. The costs incurred in testing and publishing the catalogues are borne by the catalogue publisher.

The published catalogue of my desired provider is completely out of date. What can I do?

IGH motivates suppliers to always have up-to-date catalogues in their offers.

How often and at what time a catalogue is updated is the sole responsibility of the catalogue publisher (supplier). If, in your view, a catalogue is no longer up-to-date, you should report this directly to the supplier (catalogue publisher).
