Yorkshire Water has appointed seven contract partners to its new complex non-infrastructure works framework, worth £850m, which covers the 2025 – 2030 delivery period (AMP8).
The partners have been selected across the framework to deliver on the utility’s increased investment in non-infrastructure clean and wastewater assets over the next five years.
Partners selected onto the framework are Barhale, Galliford Try, Glanua, Kier, Mott MacDonald Bentley, Tilbury Douglas, and Ward & Burke.
Partners will provide civil engineering, mechanical, electrical, instrumentation, control and automation and building capability and expertise to the utility as it increases investment in its clean water and wastewater networks across Yorkshire.
The utility will undertake its largest ever environmental investment programme in the AMP8 period, with plans to invest £8.3bn across the business recently approved by Ofwat, the water industry’s regulator.
Rachael Fox, head of programme delivery at Yorkshire Water, said:
“We’re looking forward to working with our chosen partners as we embark on an ambitious investment programme from 2025. There’s a big challenge ahead – not only to meet new regulatory requirements, but to meet customer expectations too – and effective collaboration will be key to our success.”
