Problem
Organizations struggle to quantify, report, and demonstrate the social, economic, and environmental benefits of their activities in a way that satisfies public‑sector procurement requirements, sustainability standards, and stakeholder expectations. Existing tools are fragmented, often spreadsheet‑based, and lack a trusted, standardized methodology, making compliance with the Social Value Act and related frameworks difficult and time‑consuming.
Solution
Social Value Portal offers an end‑to‑end suite that combines a proprietary measurement standard (the Social Value TOM System™) with a cloud‑based platform and expert consulting services. The TOM System provides a validated, data‑driven framework aligned to UK government data, UNSDGs, GRESB, and the Social Value Model, enabling organizations to calculate robust social value metrics. The platform centralises data capture, procurement‑focused evaluation, and automated reporting, while the consulting arm helps clients design strategies, embed social value into bids, and interpret results. Together, these components turn disparate impact data into credible, actionable insights that support compliance, bid success, and continuous improvement.
Target Audience
Primary customers are public‑sector procurement teams, private‑sector corporations, and third‑sector organisations that need to measure, report, and leverage social value to meet regulatory requirements and win contracts.
