Community Benefits Policy. The City Council and its partners have recognised the need to support the development of the Small and Medium Enterprise (SME) and Social Enterprise (SE) sector by developing a procurement approach which maximises their exposure to procurement opportunities around the Commonwealth Games and other large scale developments. The development of the Glasgow Business Portal along with contractually agreed Capacity Building support programme from main contractors has provided further opportunities to Glasgow SME and SE businesses. Up to December 2012, Commonwealth Games related business support programmes had delivered £290m of tier-1 games related contracts as advertised through the Glasgow Business Portal, of which £183m were secured by Glasgow businesses.

This approach is now being replicated amongst other public bodies in the city in order to secure more opportunities for the long term unemployed in the city.
