Value for Money:
Social Housing organizations operate within tight budget constraints.

By doing so, we ensure that Social Housing organizations can maximize their investments to benefit their communities comprehensively.
Stakeholder Engagement:
The Social Housing sector serves a diverse range of stakeholders – from tenants to local communities to regulatory bodies. We advocate for a procurement process that actively engages these stakeholders, ensuring their needs and concerns are adequately addressed.
Sustainable and Ethical Procurement:
Given the societal role of Social Housing organizations, it is imperative that their procurement practices reflect the highest standards of sustainability and ethics. We prioritize suppliers who demonstrate a commitment to environmental sustainability, fair labor practices, and community engagement.
Continuous Improvement:
The challenges facing the Social Housing sector are evolving, and so too should the procurement practices that support it. NPS is dedicated to the ongoing research, development, and refinement of our tools, platforms, and practices to ensure they remain relevant, effective, and responsive to the sector’s needs.
