Methodology

This graph shows how your local authority performs on two key measures from the Index:

X-axis: The share of your council’s direct procurement spend that went to local suppliers - defined as suppliers based within your authority’s region.

Y-axis: The share of your direct procurement spend that created social value - defined as spend with SMEs (Small and Medium-sized Enterprises) or VCSEs (Voluntary, Community and Social Enterprises).

Only councils that published a full set of procurement spending data for 2024 are included in the chart.

This analysis highlights which local authorities are leading the way in embedding both local and social priorities into their procurement, and which have room to grow.
