Why Social Value Initiatives Should Matter To You
Legal Requirements To Embed Social Value
If you’re delivering housing projects, retrofit work or managing public assets, Social Value isn’t a nice-to-have. It’s a requirement.
In England, the new Procurement Act 2023 further strengthens these obligations, aligning them with principles outlined in the National Procurement Policy Statement (NPPS). This reflects a growing demand for transparent, values-led commissioning.
Public sector organisations (like councils and social landlords) now have a duty to consider Social Value Management in everything they buy or build. This means it’s no longer enough to deliver a project on time and on budget. It must also deliver on impact.
Key Considerations For Organisations:
When contracts are awarded for housing upgrades, energy efficiency works, or new developments, buyers must consider:
What difference will this project make for local people?
Will it create jobs or apprenticeships?
Will it support local businesses?
Will it reduce carbon emissions or protect the environment?
Will it improve health, wellbeing, or skills in the community?
