FAQs
What is the UK Social Value Model?
It is the government framework (under PPN 06/20) defining the social value themes buyers score in central government tenders — economic recovery, tackling inequality, climate change, equal opportunity and wellbeing.
How do I write a strong social value answer?
Make every commitment specific, local, measurable with a KPI and date, and only promise what you can evidence. Vague aspirations score poorly.
