Kier has been awarded two separate contracts on an early contractor involvement (ECI) basis by Southern Water under its 拢3.1bn AMP8 strategic delivery partner framework.
The first of the new awards is a 拢19.9m contract that includes early-stage design and development for six wastewater treatment sites: Chickenhall (Eastleigh), Fullerton, Leeds (Kent), Newnham Valley (Preston), Paddock Wood and Sellindge. These works will enhance capacity and compliance to meet future environmental and population demands in line with Water Industry National Environment Programme (WINEP) commitments.
The second is a 拢24.5m contract covering another six wastewater treatment sites at Dambridge (Wingham), Felbridge, Staplehurst, Ticehurst, Tonbridge, and Ulcombe. Kier will progress design development and constructability planning for upgrades focused on improving ammonia, phosphorus, and biochemical oxygen demand (BOD) removal.
Both contracts are being delivered under the NEC4 Engineering and 色猫直播 Contract.
This 拢44.4m-worth of work builds on Kier鈥檚 appointments earlier this year by Southern Water to two additional ECI contracts under AMP8, worth a combined 拢28.8m.
Andy Beech, framework director at Kier Natural Resources, Nuclear & Networks, said: 鈥淭hese awards represent another important step in our partnership with Southern Water at the start of AMP8. They reflect the confidence our client has in Kier to deliver high-quality, sustainable wastewater solutions that will improve performance, protect the environment, and deliver long-term value for customers.鈥�
