The 5-year MEICA frameworks, with an optional extension of up to 3 years, cover a wide range of assets from installation of simple dosing systems to pumping station refurbishment, significant treatment process improvement and full treatment works installations across both water and wastewater sites.

Mark Baker, head of programme delivery, said: “The MEICA framework partners will join our civils partners and Yorkshire Water in developing our Enterprise Delivery Model.

“Through this new model, we’re looking to form a collaborative, innovative and efficient delivery vehicle with a focus on engineering excellence and our carbon targets, utilising a Programme First approach. We are confident that this will ensure we achieve our challenges going into AMP7.”

Chris Tyerman, infrastructure managing director at Interserve Construction, said: “Having worked with Yorkshire Water for a number of years on previous Frameworks this is another fantastic result for our water business.

“This exciting role also broadens Interserve’s presence in the north of England where we already work with Northumbrian Water Group.”
