The event is classified under business services, specifically focusing on law, marketing, consulting, recruitment, and security. The procurement process, scheduled to begin in June 2022, aims to introduce a minimum allocation of 10% for social value in service contracts above £123,000. Interested parties should note that the tender period will conclude on 28th June 2022, and the event venue will accommodate participants both physically and remotely. This initiative represents a significant opportunity for businesses that specialise in the delivery of social value, including those in consulting, training, recruitment, and IT services. Companies with expertise in environmental services, management consultancy, and community engagement will find this a pertinent platform to showcase their capabilities, particularly as NI Water incentivises suppliers who can integrate social value into their offerings. By participating in this event, businesses can align themselves with evolving public procurement practices and potentially secure lucrative contracts within the public sector, directly contributing to meaningful social outcomes. ## Notice Social Value Event - Thursday 30th June 2022. NI Water and The Social Value Unit at the Strategic Investment Board are hosting a hybrid Social Value Supplier Engagement Event. In the summer of 2021, Finance Minister Conor Murphy announced that policy within public procurement is changing and from 1st June 2022 public procurement will no longer solely award contracts based on cost and quality but tenders (above threshold) must allocate a minimum of 10% to social value. This will apply to service contracts valued above PS123,000 and construction contracts valued above PS4.7million. To help the supply chain understand this further - NI Water and the Social Value Unit at the Strategic Investment Board will be hosting a Social Value Supplier Engagement session on Thursday 30th June 2022 as a hybrid event.
