SUMMARY:Responsible Business for Public Sector Suppliers
DESCRIPTION:Being a “Responsible Business”\, and how you demonstrate it\, can be the difference between winning and not winning work in the Public Sector. The drive for more socially and environmentally responsible business practises is on the increase and this is being reflected in public sector competitions. But being “Responsible” is made up of different elements and providers often tell us that the requests and requirements from public sector can be confusing and complex. \nHelp is required to understand what is being asked for and what providers can consider doing\, or how to demonstrate actions already being taken. This session will give a practical over view of what agenda items such as social value\, carbon net zero and sustainability are. We know that lots of smaller providers are already doing lots of really impactful things in line with these agenda so we’ll also explore how you can reflect the great work you’re already doing in competitions and use those activities to help you secure growth for the future. \nHosted by Go4Growth resident experts in these fields\, Sheri-Leigh Miles and Jimmy Brannigan\, this workshop is designed to be interactive and take any questions you might have on these important topics.

SUMMARY:Find businesses to partner with & develop collaborative working

We’re putting on this event\, dedicated to meeting other businesses who are also exploring collaborative working. \nWe’ll give an overview of the things you might want to consider leading up to becoming ‘contract ready’ in a partnership and we’ll explore what the key areas of focus are for businesses wanting to work together to secure work in the public sector. \nWe’ll explore what the make or break elements are of preparing to work with others. \nThis highly interactive workshop will be an opportunity for businesses to meet\, greet\, exchange details and explore how to form new working relationships. Come along and introduce yourself and your business and hopefully you can find new contacts and connections for future work.

SUMMARY:Promoting Your Organisation
DESCRIPTION:We’ll explore what the most popular social channels are within the public sector versus the channels businesses are most comfortable using. \nWe’ll take a look at some good examples of using social platforms and some top tips on what to do versus what not to do! \nWe’ll explore what good engagement could look like\, discussing examples of when businesses have really stood apart and some pitfalls to avoid when wanting to promote your organisation to public sector buyers. \nWe’ll explore what building your brand means and what buyers look for. \nDrawing on feedback from businesses at previous Promoting Your Organisation events\, we’ll discuss what support businesses tell us they want and need when trying to showcase their business. We’ll highlight also how this can be a very different experience in the public sector from the private sector and give an important insight into how the governance environment can stipulate how public sector buyers look to receive market information both now and under the future regulations.

SUMMARY:Finding Opportunities in the Public Sector
DESCRIPTION:Providers often tell us that it can be really difficult to find the right opportunities in the public sector. There are lots of portals and different search engines so knowing where to start can be a challenge in its own right. \nAt this workshop\, Lauren from Go4Growth will give an overview of who the public sector is\, what they buy and importantly\, how they buy goods and services.\nWe’ll go through some of the main portals to show you which portals are used in what geographical areas or by which public sector organisations. We will also cover how to search using Contracts Finder\, the free government-hosted database of public sector opportunities as well as the Find A Tender Service. \nWe’ll also take a look forward to the new regulations and what will change in relation to advertising opportunities In addition\, we’ll cover some of the other ways that the public sector engages with the provider marketplace discussing things like Meet the Buyer events and why they can be a great place for providers to build relationships with potential customers and how social media is beginning to change how the public sector advertises opportunities. \nAs always there will be lots of time for questions and discussion and we hope to see lots of providers from all sectors come and join us.

SUMMARY:Carbon Net Zero for Providers
DESCRIPTION:A practical overview of Carbon Net Zero (CNZ) for providers. Where do you start\, what does it mean and what proportionate\, relevant and impactful actions can you take as a business? \nThe UK has legislated to end its contribution to global warming by 2050\, in effect reducing greenhouse gas emissions by at least 100%. That means Carbon Net Zero is one of the most important strategic drivers of our time\, and this is being reflected in public procurements and grant funding processes in all sectors at all values. It will take everyone to get involved and contribute to achieving this critical goal. \nWe know it can be a challenging and complex topic though and Go4Growth is here to help you as a current or aspiring supplier within the public or private sectors to be able to work out what’s right for your business to do as part of the drive to become Carbon Net Zero. \nThis webinar will provide a practical overview of Carbon Net Zero for providers whether you’re supplying public or private sector clients as all commissioning organisations across all sectors focus more on environmental stewardship and reducing carbon. \nWe’ll cover in brief the general requirements\, what you need to be aware of and how your business can engage with this important agenda by creating a simple Net Zero Action Plan. \nHaving a Carbon Net Zero Action Plan will not only help us achieve our environmental goals as a nation\, it is likely to become crucial to securing business in the future.

SUMMARY:Social Value for Providers
DESCRIPTION:We have developed this webinar for organisations who are working with or wish to work as a supplier to the Public Sector and/or want to understand social value better and learn how to develop an approach to social contribution through your business. \nSocial and environmental impact is a growing priority in both private and public sector competitions and so this workshop will help businesses who are seeking to increase their knowledge in this area to support growth generally. \nThe Public Services Act requires commissioners in the public sector to consider social outcomes in everything they spend. Over the last few years\, Social Value considerations in procurement have been steadily receiving more scrutiny and importance. With the impending changes to the regulatory environment\, this is only set to increase traction further. Now is a good time to understand how you can contribute socially through your core business.\nWe will explore how to practically develop the social value narrative of your organisation\, work out what’s important for you\, and how to communicate it. We’ll reference back to Central Government’s Social Value Model\, local government’s TOMs (Themes\, Outcomes and Measures) and SDG’s (Sustainable Development Goals ) which are good reference models regardless of which sector your prospective client is in. \nWe’re delighted to be joined at this event by Rebecca Griffiths from NHS England who is going to share with us the key messages and key policy requirements for social contribution within the NHS. If you are a current or aspiring supplier to the NHS\, this will be helpful guidance on what Social Value through Procurement means to the NHS and what you are likely to be asked for in contracts and tendering processes.

This will include health and safety requirements\, what licences\, accreditations and policies you might need and what insurances you will likely be asked for.  \nAt the end of the session you will take away all the information you need to be able to take part in public sector opportunities in Barnsley and more broadly should you want to” \n\nCLICK HERE TO BOOK YOUR FREE PLACE

DESCRIPTION:CLICK HERE TO BOOK YOUR PLACE \n  \nLearn about developing partnerships\, collaborations or consortia when seeking to secure opportunities in the public sector \nLooking at the 6 months leading up to becoming ‘contract ready’ we’ll explore what the key areas of focus are for businesses wanting to work together to secure work in the public sector. \nWe’ll explore what the make or break elements are of preparing to work with others. \nThis highly interactive workshop will be an opportunity for businesses to meet\, greet\, exchange details and explore how facilitation can be helpful to forming a consortia.
