Keeping your Social Value efforts on track and linked up across teams can be complex and time consuming if you don’t have the right tools to hand.
Social Value Portal’s Workspace serves as the single point of truth for your Social Value. It lets you centralise all activities in one place so you can spend less time on arduous admin and more time creating real value.
The Workspace gives you one centralised hub to access and manage all your Social Value data and delivery – whether you’re looking to maximise impact and outcomes through contract procurement and management as a buyer, commitments to your customers as a supplier, your corporate activities, real estate assets, supply chain management, or indeed all of the above.
The platform makes data input simple and intuitive, facilitating both quantitative and qualitative storage, including data, images, and automated input reminders. From there, you can start optimising your activities.
The Workspace is also highly collaborative, with unlimited user accounts to easily share data and processes across internal teams, suppliers and partners. To date, it has managed over 13,000 bids and 10,500 projects across supply chains.
It integrates directly with your existing data sources and is the only platform with real-time updates on the latest metrics and proxies within the Social Value TOM System™, as well as industry best practices.
The Workspace has functionalities to serve all needs. You can set targets within your own organisation or across your supply chain, submit bids, manage procurements and contracts, and calculate values automatically.
Users have a range of ways to view and slice their data. There are configurable dashboards, a Social Value Calculator, various reporting tools, and even geo-mapping.
The Workspace also generates a variety of reports, including annual benchmarking, corporate impact reports, and mapping against the UN's Sustainable Development Goals.
Absolutely - the Workspace is designed to connect seamlessly with our customers' existing platforms and data sources via APIs. This ensures a joined-up user experience without any silos or duplication of work.
With 24,000 users across the public and private sectors, the Workspace can enable Social Value excellence for any use case.
Buyers and bidders use it to embed Social Value into procurements, select suppliers based on commitments, and actively manage contracts. Our members find the comprehensive ITT templates hugely valuable too.
From a reporting standpoint, the Workspace has been used to manage and report on a vast number of projects and contracts. Our spotlight on Equans gives you a sense of how fruitful this can be.
