Wessex Water has unveiled the capital delivery partners that will help deliver its investment over the next five years and beyond.
The new framework which includes Morgan Sindall Infrastructure is the start of Wessex Water’s ambitious programme of work throughout its region – which includes Dorset, Somerset and Bristol, most of Wiltshire and part of Gloucestershire and Hampshire – within the AMP8 investment period (2025-30).
Paul Lewis, Wessex Water’s Engineering and Delivery Director said: “These awards will enable a much wider reach for the delivery, training, development, secondments and apprenticeships across the partnership for a programme that is more than double the size of our AMP7 (2020-25) commitments.”
“I’m delighted with this award, it is great to be able to develop a new relationship with Wessex Water and increase our footprint across the regions, building on our long-term collaborative relationships in a growing sector for us.”
The new framework agreements, in place for up to 11 years, start immediately and have been designed to encourage a collaborative, flexible and agile approach that will be required as the industry grapples with an £88 billion investment programme across the country.
