Eric Wright Water has been appointed to support three frameworks for Yorkshire Water across its clean and wastewater assets.
The appointments include frameworks’ manager Matt Barney (Severn Trent Water), design manager Scott Lord, electrical contracts manager Dave Walls (North West) and commercial manager Paul Swann.
The company, which is part of the Eric Wright Group, has been selected for Yorkshire Water’s Complex Civil Framework, Complex Mechanical, Electrical, Instrumentation, Control and Automation (MEICA) Framework and the Minor MEICA Framework.
Work delivered via the Complex Civil & MEICA framework, will include the design, build and refurbishment of Yorkshire Water’s treatment assets including reservoirs and pumping stations.

The new frameworks will span work delivered between 2020 and 2025.
The company is also delivering projects via frameworks with Scottish Water and Severn Trent Water and is a supply chain partner with United Utilities.
Managing director of Eric Wright Water, Neal Whittle, said: “Having worked closely with Yorkshire Water for the last five years, we are very pleased to renew our partnership with them.
“We have invested in the business by developing our people and recruiting a number of key individuals to our multi-disciplinary engineering team who will be instrumental in delivering the work through these frameworks.”
