Our methodology

Three principles that underpin every winning bid


All three services are built on the same framework, developed from evaluating over 10,000 bids across every sector.

  • Demonstrate understanding of relevant issues.
    Identify relevant local needs and buyer priorities - and how they show up in your industry and this contract.
  • Commit to actions that make an impact.
    Commitments should be additional to the core contract, directly attributable to your intervention, and proportionate to the contract size.
  • Instil confidence that you can deliver.
    Set out how you will deliver commitments, your timeline, who is accountable, transparent metrics you will use, and what track record you have.

SVP delivered a high-quality training session that received unanimous positive feedback from all the attendees. The training was tailored to the needs of our business and each participant received helpful guidance to progress our work further. I would recommend this SVP training to others looking to enhance their social value work.

Eadaoin Kelly
Divisional Head of Social Impact, Lovell

The Local Needs Analysis and associated expertise and guidance helped us articulate a compelling and impactful narrative that aligned with the customer's criteria. Our responses went through a number of review stages with detailed feedback given at each step which not only strengthened our proposal, but also showcased the shared commitment from both parties to delivering meaningful outcomes. This approach has allowed us to create a blueprint which we will use to develop social value responses across future bids.

Robyn Allan
Bid Manager, Arco

SVP provided clear insights into clients' expectations, which will also help align our approach with what evaluators are looking for. The team from SVP delivered the training exceptionally well. They were knowledgeable, engaging, and clearly passionate about Social Value, which made the session informative and motivating.
