Understanding the Social Procurement Framework (SPF) – Why, and how to partner for impact and to meet SPF objectives.

Please note: if you have attended our Responding to the SPF workshop, this one is different.

The message from the Victorian Government: We are absolutely committed to social procurement.

How are they demonstrating this?

• Mandated minimum standards. Contractors will be required to meet contract deliverables across all aspects of the Victorian SPF
• 10% weighting towards social procurement activity >$20m

For many business members, long-term, sustainable partnerships with certified social enterprises will enable social and environmental impact, and a well-defined partnership will make all parties more competitive.

Join this workshop to explore what goes into a great partnership with certified social enterprises, how you can demonstrate your impact, and meet certified social enterprises.

This is for Social Traders business members and certified social enterprises. We’ll help you to understand Victorian Government expectations and share successes and challenges. We’ll help you form and build relationships that will help you demonstrate your ability to meet the Victorian Government SPF requirements and outcomes.

This interactive online workshop will cover:

• The importance of the Social Procurement Framework (SPF) and the long-term goals it aims to achieve,
• how your organisation can leverage your spend to meet and exceed SPF requirements,
• explore qualities in social enterprise partnerships,
• receive tools and tips on how to engage your organisation in the currency of social value,
• facilitated discussions between certified social enterprises and business members, forming and building potential partnerships.
