2022 Reflection. A True SEC-cess!

What a 2022

A year of challenge for the sector, a year of new regulation and policies, a year of unstable central government leadership,?but another year where our network comes together for good.

We have procured over 200 contracts this year, harnessing millions of delivered social value by our supply chain but delivering millions directly here at SEC.?We continue to specialise in London & South housing sectors, being more than just another procurement sector organisation and I am proud to lead our Re-Investment Support.

We now boast 50 member owners and support over 100 social landlords in the south east. This coverage has meant we have done more for the sector than ever before. We trained over 600 staff in 2022 through our training programme & completed our first programme of 34 future leaders.

We ran 6 roundtables, 3 AM Series conferences,?supported 2 sector events CIH Brighton and Homes UK and of course our premier, our flagship, annual conference at the London Stadium.

We have continued to run 3 research groups under our INSIGHTS programme and participated in the work of many others.

We supported 10 fantastic charities and community organisations with the best part of ￡80k.?

But all if this isn’t for us, we take pride in not just being a great procurement organisation, but an enabler of bringing public buyers and a diverse supply chain together to produce better quality, safer more sustainable homes and communities.?

Make yourself a New Year’s resolution over the break if you can;

• Book on to one of our events or roundtables,
• Sign up for some of our training,
• Advocate our next generation leaders programme to worthy candidates in your organisation,
• Nominate a great community cause for our annual foundation fund,
• Or simply enquire about our great range of frameworks and DPS’s.

Wishing you your families and colleagues the very best over this festive break and of course a happy new year.
