Social Value in Tenders:
Social Value is now carrying a minimum of 10% of the total tender score. This may now be the differentiating factor that secures a winning bid for suppliers.
• Are you confused with the difference between Contractual Social Value and Company Corporate Social Responsibility or ESG?
• Do you want to understand how Contracting Authorities are evaluating Social Value in Tenders?
• Would you like some guidance on how to structure a Tender Social Value Response?
If the answer to the above is yes then join Sarah Joy Newton from Amethyst Connect for a member online webinar on Wednesday 1st March 10.30 – 11.30am to find out.
The session will cover:
• the difference between CSR/ESG and Contractual Social Value
• how Social Value is being asked and evaluated in tenders
• key factors suppliers need to consider to achieve an excellent score

This will be a live session so there will also be an opportunity to ask questions directly to Sarah.
