Webinar: Win More Bids with Social Value: Best Practice and Market Insights

Written by Social Value Portal | Jun 19, 2026 1:30:20 PM

Social Value is a critical element of public sector bidding. In fact, the data shows that suppliers who win on Social Value are twice as likely to win the contract.

But while the fundamentals of a strong bid haven't changed, the market has. Evaluators are more experienced, and the Procurement Act 2023 has made early engagement more important than ever.

This session covers what's shifted in the market and the practical framework for building a winning Social Value bid.
