Procurement with purpose

Making a real impact

Doing the right thing is good for business. When we procure with purpose, we drive meaningful change in our local communities and see incredible outcomes.

As commercial collaborators with a shared social conscience, we work with you to run successful, target-hitting projects that have a long-term impact on the people you serve.

We have decades of experience and a deep understanding of the future of social value and public procurement. We support our members to address urgent needs in their communities, like unemployment and skills shortages, and take an outcome-driven approach to integrating solutions into projects, from conception to completion.

Taking a razor-sharp approach to the technical detail enables us to embed social value, impact and change into the fabric of built environment procurement in the public sector.

Achieving social impact through the planning system

Working with our award-winning social value team, we’ll support you to create social value strategies to complement your planning applications. Using our end-to-end service, we’ll embed social value in every phase of the development lifecycle, creating a social value strategy which actively addresses the needs of local communities.

Changing narratives

Reducing reoffending is a fundamental part of building better communities. We actively contribute to this by funding a prison-based training programme. Through The Gates delivers practical construction courses to UK prison inmates to help them rewrite their narrative by gaining qualifications and finding post-release employment.
