2. Social procurement in construction projects and the role of social enterprise While
closely related, research in the fields of social procurement and social enterprise has evolved in different ways. The reason for this is that social enterprise represents just one aspect of social procurement, if not a critically important one. As Newman and Burkett (2012) point out, there are numerous ways, outside social enterprise, in which organisations can achieve social value through their procurement activities. For example, a firm can require existing suppliers to employ disadvantaged people on its projects. Nevertheless, social enterprise is the focus of this paper and despite being ahead of social procurement in its theoretical development, suffers the same conceptual vagueness (Doherty et al, 2014; Haugh, 2012; Grassl, 2012). As Mason and Barraket (2015) point out, “the disparity of foci as well as the pace of development has not been conducive to an orderly interrogation of the field at large”. Furthermore, De Bruin and Lewis (2015) show that we are only starting to understand the importance of context in the practice of social entrepreneurship, which includes transition to social enterprise. The main advances in both social procurement and social enterprise research has been largely ‘practice-based’. For example, Barraket and Weissman’s (2009) review of academic and policy literature argued that advances in social procurement can be broadly located within a ‘relational approach’ to procurement, which represents a change to the traditional focus of procurement away from competitive tendering towards valuing social impact, public, private partnership and sustained supply chain relationships. Their work concluded that the main barriers to social procurement included: “governmental culture, lack of purchaser knowledge of social purpose businesses, the complexity of measuring and assessing social value, limited organisational capacity and lack of experience with public procurement amongst some prospective providers, and limited 134 M. Loosemore / International Journal of Project Management 34 (2016) 133–144 capacity amongst social purpose businesses to articulate their social value added” (pp. iii). Later work by Burkett (2010) and Newman and Burkett (2012) argued that an effective social procurement strategy should have four key dimensions: (1) A policy focus—developing and implementing social procurement policy which include commitments to making a social impact, communicating why it’s important to the business, business partners and to society; commitments to spending targets on social enterprises and requirements for relevant parts of the business to consider social value in procurement decisions. (2) A contract focus—which involves incorporating social value clauses and requirements into tender documents and contracts with clear criteria and weightings. (3) A supplier focus—which involves engaging with organisations such as social enterprises that can deliver social value into the community at the same time as offering services and products to various parts of the business. (4) A market development focus—where sufficient expertise does not exist in existing supply chains, developing this capability through JVs, partnerships, training, finance and by stimulating contracts for these enterprises through supply chains and related businesses.
