30 Second Briefing
Yorkshire Water has appointed Egis to Lot 1 of its £80m AMP8 technical services and assurance framework, a multi-year contract starting 1 July and running to 2030 with options to extend to 2032. Lot 1, worth a combined £12.7m, will see Egis deliver project-level engineering and design services across civil, mechanical and electrical disciplines, including feasibility testing, optioneering and construction support for critical infrastructure upgrades. The work targets long-term asset health and environmental performance across Yorkshire’s water and wastewater networks.
Technical Brief
- Lot 1 appointment gives Egis a defined £12.7m share of the £80m framework.
- Contract start fixed at 1 July, with a base term to 2030 and two-year extension option.
- Scope explicitly bundles feasibility testing, optioneering and construction-phase support into a single technical services lot.
- Framework is tied to Yorkshire Water’s AMP8 investment programme, so workload will track AMP8 capex phasing.
- Egis will draw on existing water-sector delivery models from Uisce Éireann and Severn Trent Water work.
- Access to “specialist engineering, asset management and technical assurance expertise” suggests strong focus on whole‑life asset performance.
Our Take
The £80M AMP8 technical services framework for Yorkshire Water appears in multiple items in our database, signalling that the utility is deliberately splitting work across several consultancies (Egis, AtkinsRéalis and others), which will likely push suppliers to specialise by asset type and delivery phase rather than chase one dominant lot.
With AMP8 running to 2030 and options to extend two more years, the framework gives Yorkshire-based contractors and designers a relatively long planning horizon compared with many UK infrastructure packages in our coverage, which should encourage early investment in digital asset management and low‑carbon design capability to secure call‑off work.
