Delta eSourcing and Social Value Portal announce strategic partnership to simplify Social Value delivery in procurement

Delta eSourcing, a leading provider of end-to-end eProcurement solutions, and Social Value Portal have today announced a strategic partnership to help organisations embed, evaluate and report Social Value directly within the procurement process. 

This collaboration brings together Delta’s trusted e-sourcing technology with SVP’s market-leading Social Value measurement framework, enabling buyers and suppliers to integrate Social Value requirements seamlessly into tendering and contract management. 

Through this partnership, organisations who are members of both Delta eSourcing and Social Value Portal will be able to: 

• Evaluate bids consistently and transparently, ensuring fair assessment of Social Value commitments. 

• Monitor delivery post-award, linking procurement to measurable community, economic and environmental outcomes. 

“Social Value is now a core part of public procurement, but for many buyers and suppliers, embedding it effectively can be complex,” said Grahame Steed, Director of Public Policy and Research at BiP Solutions – the company behind the Delta solution. “We are excited that our partnership with Social Value Portal will give our shared members the tools to evaluate and deliver Social Value efficiently, from tender to contract completion.” 

Anna McChesney-Gordon, Chief Strategy Officer at Social Value Portal, added: “This partnership moves Social Value from policy to practice, helping organisations turn their commitments into real-world impact. By connecting with Delta’s powerful e-sourcing platform, our shared members can ensure every procurement decision delivers value for communities, the economy and the environment.” 

The integration reinforces both organisations’ shared mission to drive transparency, accountability, and impact in procurement. It will be exclusively available to organisations who are members of both Delta eSourcing and Social Value Portal, ensuring a secure, fully supported experience for joint users.
