Stantec, a global leader in sustainable design and engineering, is supporting the CMDP+ joint venture (JV) comprising Costain and MWH Treatment, as its strategic design partner. Together, they are helping shape, evolve, and deliver Southern Water¡¯s next strategic asset upgrade programme.

Stantec brings a significant workforce, a historic and successful relationship with Southern Water, and a deep understanding of the UK water sector into the venture. Blended teams within CMDP+ are supporting Southern Water with cost effective, timely, high-quality, and sustainable whole life design solutions for non-Infrastructure projects throughout AMP8. Specialists across the JV and ²ÝÝ®´«Ã½ have already started developing concept solutions and conducting site visits.

Combined strengths and specialisms

CMDP+ has been working with ²ÝÝ®´«Ã½ on AMP8 projects since 2024, reviewing Southern Water¡¯s wastewater programme and supporting alternative value options for consideration. The move by ²ÝÝ®´«Ã½ further builds on the long and successful multi-AMP relationship between all parties which has evolved alongside Southern Water¡¯s asset lifecycle process, wastewater, and WINEP programmes.

By joining CMDP+ in an evolved role, ²ÝÝ®´«Ã½ will become more involved in the delivery of schemes, supporting projects from early stages into construction. This expands ²ÝÝ®´«Ã½¡¯s previous AMP7 involvement from the front end to the asset delivery process. As the collaboration grows, the JV will be able to leverage ²ÝÝ®´«Ã½¡¯s additional resources and sector ²ÝÝ®´«Ã½ throughout the most aspirational AMP period to date. ²ÝÝ®´«Ã½ will also bring digital, environmental and planning services to CMDP+, including town and country planning, as part of their broader remit.

A natural next step

¡°Our relationship has gone from strength to strength, and CMDP+ feels like a natural evolution for everyone involved, said Velda Fairclough, client services director, ²ÝÝ®´«Ã½. ¡°We¡¯re excited to drive innovation, efficiency, and sustainability for Southern Water, helping shape and deliver its next strategic asset upgrade programme in a spirit of collaboration.¡±

Neil Cuthbert, head of engineering at CMDP+ added: ¡°It¡¯s fantastic to have ²ÝÝ®´«Ã½ on board as a strategic design partner for AMP8. Our established relationship in the region has gone from strength to strength over the previous two AMPs.? I look forward to the additional value in AMP8 and continued exceptional collaborative team working.¡±
