Black Capital Group is the parent holding organisation that powers four complementing sister companies:

Advanced Social Value

Advanced Social Value

Advance Social Value supports both private sector contractors, and public sector organisations to ensure they are fulfilling their mandatory requirements under the social value act, but also delivering tangible and measurable social value outcomes across their projects.

The “Project” package offers a one stop shop for Social Value delivery across construction projects. Here a dedicated project social value manager will work with the project team to set a bespoke social value plan (linked to the national measures ), then will monitor the delivery of that plan throughout the construction delivery stages of each project collating outcome evidence. Finally, upon project completion each project will get its own bespoke “Social Value Capture Report”, and accompanying video.

Advance Social Values full scope of services can be found on our website but include, companywide strategy setting, public sector procurement support, private sector bid writing, training, social value plan development and delivery.

Compliance Chain

Compliance Chain

Compliance Chain was created after cries from the industry to develop a modern and user-friendly platform which combines supplier compliance, financial due diligence, project reporting, and social value delivery into one cloud-based system.

Market feedback outlined that although there are multiple platforms available that monitor supplier compliance, financial due diligence, project reporting, and social value delivery, a platform does not exist that combines all of these aspects into one complete project and supplier management solution.
In addition, other individual systems were described as ‘difficult to navigate’, ‘not user friendly’, and providing ‘poor quality output reports’.

The platform has been developed in collaboration with framework providers, public sector client organisations, contractors, and subcontractors. The result is a best-in-class platform which is current, market-leading, and meets the needs of all project stakeholders.

Strategic Resourcing

Strategic Resourcing

Strategic Resourcing is an easy to use construction recruitment and resourcing platform that allows contractors to list job vacancies to our exclusive network of the UK’s top recruitment companies at the click of a button, receive and review applications, and arrange interviews all in one convenient place.

This digitalisation of resourcing not only speeds up the process for contractors, but it makes it much easier for recruiters too. Strategic Resourcing limits each of our top recruiters to 3 CVs per job, with our system being designed to identify and remove any duplicate submissions. By controlling submissions, we can guarantee that you connect with only the highest quality talent from our recruiter’s extensive network without sacrificing efficiency.

Not only do we link your job vacancies with these top recruiters, but we performance manage each agency to ensure they are delivering quality candidates every time. Our expert team is always on hand to address all queries with round-the-clock support to help solve any issues with ease.

Procure Partnerships Framework

Procure Partnerships Framework

Procure Partnerships Framework supports and protects public sector bodies when procuring both contractors and professional services partners.

The Procure Partnerships Framework is divided regionally, supporting the framework values of local delivery with national governance. The framework pushes the boundaries of how procurement can support public sector bodies to deliver their strategic targets. The framework is designed to be flexible and provides clients with single-stage, two-stage, and direct award procurement options with up to eight forms of call-off contracts.

Through experience and detailed analysis and research of procurement options across the UK, the Procure Partnerships framework offering is flexible yet robust, whilst ensuring the public sector is provided with demonstrable social value outcomes across their projects.
