Egis in the UK & Ireland has secured a place on Yorkshire Water's Technical Services and Assurance Framework, adding another major water sector client to its growing portfolio.
The multi-year contract will support Yorkshire Water’s Asset Management Period 8 (AMP8) investment programme, providing access to specialist engineering, asset management and technical assurance expertise to help deliver critical infrastructure improvements and strengthen long-term asset health across the region.
Commencing on 1 July, Egis has been appointed to Lot 1 of the £80 million framework, which has been established to provide Yorkshire Water with specialist technical support as it delivers its AMP8 investment priorities.
The contract will run until 2030, with options to extend for a further two years.
Under Lot 1, which is worth a combined £12.7 million of the framework, Egis will provide project-level engineering and design services, including feasibility testing, optioneering and construction support. The work will span a range of disciplines including civil, mechanical and electrical design.
The appointment further strengthens Egis’s growing presence in the water sector, building on its long-standing work with Uisce Éireann in Ireland, ongoing commitments with Severn Trent Water and involvement with major international water projects.
Egis's close working relationship with clients was a key factor in winning the appointment, with the firm involved from the earliest stages of project development to align priorities and address challenges as they arise.
Through the framework, Egis will draw on its expertise in storm overflow mitigation, pollution reduction and asset health resilience, giving Yorkshire Water access to specialist capabilities as its requirements evolve throughout AMP8.
Michael Timmins, Director of Water at Egis in the UK, said:
"We're delighted to be working with Yorkshire Water on one of the water sector's largest AMP8 programmes.
"This win reflects the strength of our water sector expertise, and we look forward to bringing together specialists from across the UK, Ireland and our global network to support Yorkshire Water in improving asset health and delivering better outcomes for customers."
