Challenges in Measuring and Delivering Social Value in Real Estate

Meeting social value requirements in planning applications

Planning authorities increasingly require clear social value commitments, but translating policy into deliverable and measurable outcomes remains inconsistent.

Measuring and reporting social impact across developments

Organisations often lack a standardised framework to measure, quantify and report social value across planning, construction and long-term asset management.

Proving community impact with credible data and evidence

Capturing, validating and reporting social value outcomes in a way stakeholders trust is complex and resource-intensive.

Aligning ESG goals with measurable social outcomes

While environmental metrics are well defined, many organisations struggle to measure and report social impact with robust data.

Delivering social value consistently across projects and portfolios

Scaling social value delivery across multiple developments, contractors and supply chains remains fragmented and difficult to benchmark.

Demonstrating social value to stakeholders and investors

Organisations face increasing pressure to evidence social value performance to planning authorities, investors and communities in a clear and comparable way.
