The Council's new performance measure for social value would track the percentage of in-scope procurements that include award criteria weighted at least 10% toward economic, social and environmental outcomes under the Social Value Model. p2 p3

The proposed target is that 60% of in-scope procurements meet this threshold from 2026/27 to 2028/29. p27

The target was informed partly by comparing West Sussex County Council's similar measure, which targets a 10% weighting in 80% of procurements and had a 2024 outturn of 66%. p35

p2Appendix 3: Measure calculation Proposed Council Plan measure name: The percentage of in-scope Council procurements which include economic, social and environmental award criteria of 10% or greater
p3Definition: The Council Plan measure is defined as: ensure that 60% of in-scope procurement exercises include award criterion weighted at a minimum of 10% aligned to the themes of the ESCC Social Value Model (economic, social and environmental), with evidence recorded in the procurement system.
p27Targets: 2026/27 – 2028/29: 60% of all in-scope procurements contain ≥10% award criteria related to the Social Value Model themes.
p35There is limited public information on comparator Councils Performance Measures for Social Value. West Sussex CC have what could be considered a similar Performance Measure which targets 10% weighting criteria in 80% of all in-scope procurements. The most recent available performance outturn against this measure, 2024, was 66% giving further substantiation to selecting 60% as an appropriate target.
