The Data You Can Defend
A practical guide to social value data quality for technology and professional services firms.
Your organisation has rigorous processes for financial data, compliance data, and HR data. Social value data is often the exception: collected informally, structured inconsistently, and never checked against a standard before it reaches a bid or a board report.
Under the Procurement Act 2023, social value KPIs must now be published and assessed. As scrutiny of ESG and social impact claims grows across both public and private sectors, the gap between how you treat social value data and how you treat every other dataset in the organisation becomes a risk.
For a detailed overview of how Thrive supports social value measurement, see our approach to social value reporting.
In this paper, you will learn:
- Why social value data quality is now a competitive and reputational issue for firms serving government and commercial clients
- What the five dimensions of data quality mean in practice, and how to assess where your organisation stands
- How over 1,000 Validation rules catch errors at the point of entry, so your teams do not need deep framework expertise to get the data right
- How leading organisations are moving from Validation to verification to audit readiness, and what that means for your bids and ESG reporting
