You’ve specified your social value requirements and evaluated the supplier responses to down select your preferred supplier. It’s now vital to incorporate social value deliverables into the awarded contract in readiness for managing them through the contract lifespan.

Contract management is an essential but often overlooked part of the procurement life cycle and is closely linked to longer term supplier relationship management. Managing contract deliverables helps ensure you receive the service you contracted for but can foster other benefits such as innovation.

In this focused session, Paula Jarvis MCIPS, Procurement Consultant, discussed the importance and principles of contract management for delivering measurable social value outcomes.

Our attendees asked a few questions which we didn’t get to answer on the session – take a look at the Q&A here.
