Social Value Delivery
Social value is no longer a “nice to have” — it’s a requirement. From public procurement to private investment, there’s growing pressure to show that every pound spent delivers meaningful, lasting impact.
People want to know their money is helping communities thrive — reducing inequalities, improving lives, and supporting sustainable futures.
At Impera, we specialise in turning data into action. Our Social Value Delivery Partnerships combine evidence-based strategy with community insight to design, deliver, and measure real-world impact. Whether you're bidding for contracts, designing services, or looking to build trust with stakeholders, we're the right partner to help you make it count — and prove it.
Our Social Value Approach
Our Social Value Delivery partnerships are built to help organisations invest wisely and measure what truly matters.
With tools like the Social Progress Index (SPI) and Place Insight, we answer key questions such as “How well are communities really performing?” and “Where will investment have the greatest impact?” Our data-driven insights guide smarter decisions, while our consulting services turn those insights into targeted, evidence-based strategies.
Through our Citizen-Led Impact (CLI) model, we ensure communities are not only consulted but actively co-designing solutions. With clear metrics, localised reporting, and long-term tracking, we help you prove the value of your investment — socially, economically, and reputationally.
