star this property answer text <p>Government and industry are promoting improved procurement practices through the Sustainable Supply Chain pillar of the Rail Sector Deal.</p><p> </p><p>Improved practices may include more effective use of early contractor engagement, simplified tendering processes, and procurement balanced scorecards examining whole-life costs and benefits. Such practices may be used more widely by public and also private sector organisations, therefore enabling tier one suppliers and others to support their own supply chains.</p><p> </p><p>The Railway Industry Association (RIA) is currently taking forward work on this element of the sector deal on behalf of the rail industry. Rail companies that would like to contribute should contact either RIA or the Rail Supply Group.</p><p> </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>
