PARLIAMENTARY WRITTEN QUESTION
Government Departments: Facilities (18 July 2024)

Question Asked

To ask the Minister for the Cabinet Office, whether he plans to take step increase the insourcing of facilities management services in Government departments and agencies.

Asked by:
Mr Adnan Hussain (Independent)

Answer

Government Departments aim to secure value for money in meeting their facilities management requirements. The evaluation of either an in-house, outsourced, or a delivery model which is a combination of insourced and outsourced components will be evaluated on price and quality including the social value impacts such as tackling regional inequality with new skills and jobs, or ensuring those in disadvantaged groups have equal chance to become part of a diverse, resilient workforce. A minimum overall weight of 10% in the overall score is ascribed to Social Value.
