Social Value Delivery & Assurance System
A governance and reporting framework that turns Social Value commitments into measurable, auditable outcomes across complex supply chains – aligned to PPN 002 and The Crown Estate’s Supplier Charter.
A system that operationalises Charter principles
The Crown Estate asks suppliers to demonstrate their commitment across five key areas: Health, Safety & Wellbeing, Sustainability, Ethical & Inclusive Practices, Privacy & Information Security, and Innovative Business Practices. This capability translates those expectations into a practical Social Value operating model that can be applied consistently across the extended supply chain.
- Evidence of safe work practices in all Social Value activities.
- Integration of mental-health and wellbeing initiatives into delivery plans.
- Tracking of carbon, green skills, biodiversity and nature-based initiatives.
- Clear line of sight between Social Value actions and climate & nature outcomes.
- Outcome 6 & 7 monitoring, Living Wage, DEI and modern-slavery controls.
- Privacy-by-design for workforce data and use of digital tools to foster innovation.
A complete Social Value delivery & assurance system
This is more than a dashboard. It is a full Social Value PMO wrapped around your programmes – combining structure, tools and advisory support to ensure that commitments made at tender stage are realistic, deliverable, evidenced and reportable.
- PPN 002-aligned Social Value framework and standardised commitment menu.
- Social Value Commitments Register at framework, contract and supplier level.
- Supplier-type and size-specific options to keep expectations proportionate.
- SharePoint-based Delivery Tracker with period-by-period progress monitoring.
- Evidence library and verification workflow for Outcome 6 & 7 and other KPIs.
- Social Value Risk Register with defined triggers, mitigations and escalation routes.
- Power BI-ready dashboards for framework, contract and supplier views.
- Supplier Charter maturity assessments (Expected → Developing → Leading).
- Quarterly and annual reports suitable for internal governance and external disclosure.
An end-to-end Social Value operating model
The system is designed to sit alongside your existing programme management and commercial processes. It uses familiar Microsoft tools (SharePoint, Power BI, Teams) to minimise learning curves, while embedding a disciplined Social Value lifecycle that covers design, mobilisation, delivery, assurance and learning.
This model is particularly suited to initiatives such as offshore wind leasing rounds, regeneration programmes, major capital frameworks and other long-term portfolios where Social Value needs to be visible and comparable over many years.
• Contracting authorities and framework leads who need a robust system for tracking and
assuring Social Value across dozens of suppliers.
• Offshore wind developers, ports and marine clusters seeking clear, defensible evidence of
economic, social and environmental benefits in coastal communities.
• Tier 1–3 suppliers who want to strengthen their Social Value delivery, reduce risk and
differentiate themselves in competitive tenders.
• Investors and funders who require consistent, portfolio-level Social Value and impact reporting.
