Purpose-driven Delivery: A Guide To Improve Major Project Delivery Through Social Value Techniques
This guide was produced by the Major Projects Social Value Forum, a member-led forum supported by the Major Projects Association, in collaboration with Jacobs.
‘Purpose-driven delivery: A guide to improve major project delivery through social value techniques’ offers practical guidance and inspiration on how social value techniques — methods that help us understand and respond to societal needs — can deliver dual benefits for both projects and communities, based on research.
This document serves as guidance, offering inspiration and lessons learned from over 40 organisations and 20 projects involved in the research. It demonstrates how social value techniques can benefit both society and projects.
It aims to equip leaders, designers, commercial experts and all teams working on major projects with the tools and methodologies to adopt a “purpose-driven” approach to delivery across every project lifecycle stage. By doing so, projects will remain focused on the people they serve, creating a tangible golden thread that runs through every facet of the project and fostering a culture that prioritises doing things right for the benefit of all.
