Morrison Water Services, part of M Group Services’ Water Division, has announced the extension of its long-standing partnership with Southern Water through the award of both the Asset Management Plan 8 (AMP 8) Capital Programme Strategic Delivery Partner (SDP) Framework for infrastructure projects, and the Low Complexity Delivery Route Lot 2 Framework.
The scope of work includes strategic planning, detailed design, and the construction and delivery of critical water and wastewater infrastructure. Key projects will involve the enhancement of Combined Storm Overflows (CSO), improvements to the wider wastewater network, the installation of new strategic trunk mains, and the rehabilitation of large water mains.
In addition to infrastructure improvements, the contracts will create increased levels of social value through local employment opportunities, particular for local technicians, engineers and apprentices.
Iain Sutherland, Managing Director of M Group Services’ Water Division, commented:
“We are thrilled to be named Southern Water’s Capital Infrastructure Strategic Delivery Partner. This award not only extends our valued relationship with Southern Water, but also allows us to bring our engineering expertise to the forefront in support of their AMP8 business plan. We look forward to collaborating closely with Southern Water on strategic planning, design, and construction, and to contributing to the successful delivery of these critical infrastructure projects.”
