How to prepare before applications open

Frameworks like ProCure23 (P23) require significant pre-application preparation. Procurement teams run informal digital due diligence before formal evaluation — your website, LinkedIn presence, and case studies are all checked. We recommend:

  • Auditing your website for public sector credibility signals
  • Ensuring Constructionline or CHAS accreditation is current
  • Building sector-specific case studies with project values
  • Developing social value documentation aligned to the buyer's framework
