London Borough of Southwark, GB Inclusive Procurement

Complete

Local officials worked with procurement group LHC on the ADS1.1 framework for a seven-lot development. Architectural firms demonstrated commitments to equality, diversity, and inclusion among standard requirements during the tendering process. The procurement process included three value bands - including one without a turnover requirement - and a maximum £2 million turnover for Lot 7. ADS1.1 resulted in an increased selection of emerging firms owned by women and people of color.
