Panel Session: Social Value in Action - Real-World Lessons from Local Authorities - 12:55 - 13:30
Across the country, social value interventions are being rolled out—but too often, they miss the mark, failing to deliver meaningful results for communities in need. This panel discussion brings together local authority experts from the North, South, and West Midlands who are on the front lines of social value implementation.
These seasoned social value experts will share lessons learned from the trenches—highlighting what works, what doesn’t, and why procurement leaders need to embrace a more balanced and blended approach to social value measurement.
Discover practical strategies, fresh considerations, and proven approaches to:
• Design social value interventions that address genuine community needs.
• Measure and evaluate outcomes on a more equal footing.
• Steer away from ineffective processes and focus on achieving real, lasting impact.
Moderated by MeasureUp’s Matt Haworth - an entrepreneur using ‘technology for good’ in the social value space - the panellists will set out opportunities to build on existing frameworks in the interests of robustness, fairness and future livelihoods.
