Maximising social value for sustainable growth
The Public Sector Services (Social Value) Act requires all people who commission public services to think about how they can also secure wider social, economic and environmental benefits. Buy for Good (BfG) is a Community Interest Company (CIC) that makes it easy for social value to be maximised through procurement activity.
Harnessing technology for greater efficiency
Procurement also offers an opportunity for greater efficiencies and performance improvement. As a leading provider to the public sector, Ricoh can demonstrate how technology has the potential to play a significant role by:
• Assisting in digitising information allowing better access to information
• Helping make sense of the growing number of data sources
• Ensuring data security - especially when shared by more organisations, across more systems
• Improving organisational efficiency through real time collaboration
