Social procurement
Changes in procurement law mean that commissioners and procurement professionals are duty bound to consider social enterprises when developing their supply chain. At Inspire2Enterprise, we are committed to educating groups of people on the law, and any changes to legislation.
Our social procurement experts can help define specific, measurable deliverables for social enterprises. In turn, this allows public, private and third sector organisations to see exactly what value such enterprises can bring if given the chance to be part of a large contract. Private businesses are held accountable for their performance against specific targets and as part of the changes to social procurement, the same will be true of social enterprises.
Take, for example, a social enterprise that focuses on teaching skills and getting people in the local community ready for employment. Corporates that have targets for increasing employment rates from people within their local community could work with this social enterprise.
