How to Obtain Environmental Social Governance (ESG) Credentials to Win Public Sector Projects
The UK Social Value Act 2021 is now driving legal obligations for all supply chain procurement officers in public funded bodies and PLC’s to ensure their suppliers have verified ESG credentials. This opens new significant revenue opportunities worth over £100 billion pa to SME’s with proven evidence of ESG credentials.
These opportunities are accessible to SME’s of all sizes and trade sectors on open tendering platforms for all products and services, enabling faster low cost bidding for long term renewable contracts from £25000 to several million £. SME’s already trading in the public sector now risk losing significant business if they fail to act in alignment with the new legal procurement frameworks. This workshop shows how SME’s can capitalise on this significant market by aligning with the new regulatory compliance requirements.
Workshop agenda topics are tailored to attendee needs and include:
- How ESG widens market opportunities, enhances brand values and attracts equity funding
- Current and forthcoming legal procurement obligations on UK SME supply chains
- Standards bodies aligned with UK Social Value Act and how to choose affordable support
- Defining ESG requirements with examples and case studies showing proof statements
- Project management steps to achieve verified evidence of ESG success
- Example ESG programme timelines and costs from startups to established SME’s
- How to insert ESG credentials into SME branding, public bids and open tenders
- Action Planning to set up an affordable accelerated ESG Credentials programme
