The complex MEICA Framework contract, worth an estimated £750 million covers Mechanical Electrical Instrumentation, Control and Automation (MEICA) construction and refurbishment works associated with above or below ground assets. The assets will typically lie within a Yorkshire Water operational treatment site, collection or distribution asset including process treatment and water retaining structures, as one off projects.

- Full compliance with the duties of the Principal Contractor
- Full compliance with the duties of Principal Designer

- Outline and detailed design of MEICA project works
- Process and MEICA design (HAZOP, HAZID, HAZCON etc.)

- Provision of plant and equipment, materials, labour, supervision
- Project construction and commissioning
- Asset data collection, management and submission
The water company is looking to appoint up to six suppliers to the framework, which will run for an initial five years with a further 36 months extension option.
Minor MEICA framework of £300 million
Yorkshire Water is also separately tendering a framework contract for Minor Mechanical Electrical Instrumentation, Control and Automation (MEICA) works associated with above or below ground assets worth an estimated £300 million. Again, the assets will typically be within a Yorkshire Water operational treatment site, collection or distribution assets including process treatment and water retaining structures, as one off projects.
Typical project values will range from circa £50,000 to £500,000 - the scope of services will include:
- Site investigation including surveys
- Minor mechanical plant and equipment associated with water and wastewater treatment assets
- Minor electrical plant and equipment associated with water and wastewater treatment assets
- ICA plant and equipment associated with water and wastewater treatment assets
