If you’re still unsure which option fits your needs, please get in touch or book a discovery call.
Business Case for Social Value
Supporting your organisation to build a Business Case for Social Value helps define and articulate a clear and credible rationale for your social value commitments. This is particularly valuable for central government engagement, where Buyers expect strategic alignment between social value delivery and business growth.
This service is designed to support Coforge in building a robust internal case for social value that can be used across bids, client conversations and strategic planning.
Social Value Workshop for C Suite
Samtaler’s Strategic Social Value Workshop is designed to engage senior leaders. Starting from the business case for social value, the workshop engages them to shape a coherent, credible and competitive social value strategy. Delivered as a one-day, in-person session, this workshop helps organisations to align leadership vision with public sector expectations and lay the groundwork for a replicable social value offer. Workshops are highly bespoke, tailored to your needs.
SV Ideation: Outline Solution & ToC
Collaboratively shaping and defining your social value strategic vision and outlining a solution that aligns with your customer’s strategic priorities is critical for competitive advantage. This process helps differentiate your bid from others, demonstrating how your commitments will deliver meaningful outcomes. Our approach includes developing a Theory of Change (ToC) to clearly show how proposed activities lead to measurable impact, strengthening your case for social value delivery. This is useful both pre-ITT (to prepare a compelling strategy) and post-ITT (to tailor responses to specific buyer requirements).
Social Value Full Audit & Gap Analysis
Our Social Value Audit and Gap Analysis helps organisations assess the strength, relevance and readiness of their current social value offer. This is particularly valuable for businesses looking to scale their public sector footprint and improve bid performance by aligning internal policies, processes and commitments with Buyer expectations. It is designed to give you a clear view of what’s working, where the gaps are and how to strengthen your social value offer across bids.
A structured, affordable solution to assess your Social Value readiness against the new Social Value Model, identifying improvement opportunities. Delivered in 4 focused sessions across 3-5 weeks, this package provides actionable insights and a clear roadmap for success.
