star this property answer text <p>The Government has a long-established approach to identifying, developing and managing collaborative business relationships. For example, the Government recognises the importance of managing its relationships with strategic suppliers, on a cross-government basis, by observing their performance in the delivery of public services and monitoring financial health.</p><p>This year, the Government introduced a new approach to the monitoring and management of strategic suppliers through a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) between the government and each of our strategic suppliers. The approach of using an MOU reflects the Government’s now well-developed relationships with, and understanding of, its strategic suppliers. Under this new approach, strategic suppliers will agree to provide the government with the information it needs to monitor and manage risks across its strategic supplier base, with the full cooperation of industry.</p> more like this

star this property answer text <p>We are extending the application of the Social Value Act in central government to ensure all<br>major procurements explicitly evaluate social value where appropriate, rather than just<br>‘consider’. This will ensure central government contracts take account of areas as diverse as<br>the employment of disabled people, the use of social enterprises, the prevention of modern<br>slavery and the protection of the environment</p><p>We are developing a simple, systematic approach to bring departments up to a consistent,<br>minimum level of operating, and ensuring additional reporting does not add complexity or<br>cost to the procurement process, restrict markets or exclude small businesses from<br>government contracts</p><p>Government is committed to train all 4,000 commercial buyers on how to take account of<br>social value and procure successfully from social enterprises - training for government<br>commercial staff will help unlock more opportunities for voluntary, community and social<br>enterprise organisations. We will also require all departments to report on the social impact<br>of major new procurements.</p>
