The m2 JV will continue to strengthen its collaboration and provide support to the development and delivery of Scottish Water’s Investment Programmes, covering improvement works associated with all Water and Wastewater assets across Scotland for the next three years, with an option to extend for a further three years to February 2028.

Simon Crewe, Stantec’s Scotland operations director and framework manager for the m2 JV said: “I’m delighted that our partnership will continue our long-standing relationship with Scottish Water. This extension will provide fantastic opportunities for us to work collaboratively on a range of projects and programmes as well as providing strategic advice, as we support Scottish Water with their three key ambitions for success; Service Excellence, Beyond Net Zero Emissions & Great Value and Financial Sustainability.”
