Support for the Public Sector
We help you harness the Social Value Act, so you can unlock extra resources and build powerful partnerships
By embedding social value in commissioning, public sector bodies can stretch budgets further, boost community wellbeing, and achieve lasting change that benefits residents, services, and the places they serve.
Government guidance advises that social value should account for at least 10% of the score when evaluating tenders. By including social value in your tender response template you can secure additional resources to address local priorities.
Our five actions will unlock social value in your communities:
1
Research
Articulating your priorities and needs in a profile to support procurement.
This ensures your key priorities are shared with providers.
2
Recommend
Highlighting priority themes for social value at a market engagement event.
This ensures your priorities are understood by providers.
3
Propose
Scoping possible interventions, their scale and value, and developing these with providers.
This ensures your tender responses include feasible, targeted proposals.
4
Connect
Identifying community partners and developing collaborations.
This ensures you achieve more through powerful, local partnerships.
5
Collaborate
Facilitating delivery partnerships, benefits realisation and impact monitoring.
This ensures you realise the benefits and can monitor impact.
