Overview
Social value is becoming an increasingly important feature of public sector activity. Recent procurement policy notes demonstrate the shift in focus from cost to value.
Given this, it is now more essential than ever that your organisation embeds the principles of social value and ensures any activity has a positive impact on society.
Our Embedding and Evaluating Social Value course outlines the recent procurement changes to social value and will help you gain a better understanding of how social value principles can aid your organisation.
Attend this course to learn the different measurement methods, such as Social Return on Investment (SROI); understand impact and reporting techniques; gain best practice from relevant public sector examples and apply the learned tools.
There will be plenty of opportunities for you to network, share resources and experiences with other delegates. Gain valuable contacts with other like-minded peers to create that invaluable support network to help you embed social value effectively.
Please note the procurement policy notes referenced above are:
- Procurement Policy Note 06/21: Taking account of Carbon Reduction Plans in the procurement of major government contracts
- Procurement Policy Note 05/21: National Procurement Policy Statement
- Procurement Policy Note PPN 06/20 – taking account of social value in the award of central government contracts
