HACT has revealed that Breyer Group is the first social housing contractor to sign up to its social value roadmap.
Breyer Group has become the latest organisation to join the project, which aims to help the social housing sector to use social value information to improve services, enhance decision-making, and increase impact.
Commenting on the new addition, Andrew van Doorn, chief executive of HACT (pictured), said: “In signing up to the social value roadmap, Breyer has demonstrated its commitment to be at the forefront of social value measurement and implementation.
“As one of the sector’s leading contractors, their involvement in the social value roadmap will ensure the tools and use cases we develop are applicable across the business of social housing.
“The roadmap will enable organisations to use social value to make better business decisions, influence and plan for the future, as well as to identify the social value they help to create for social housing organisations.”
Tim Breyer, managing director of Breyer Group, added: “We are pleased to partner with HACT and contribute to the development of the social value roadmap, we look forward to the joined-up collaboration with all the organisations taking part.”
