We look forward to establishing a strong and effective alliance with Anglian Water, Barhale and Kier over the approaching AMP6 period and beyond.”

Jason Tucker, Head of Capital Delivery and Supply Chain Management for Anglian Water said that confirmiation of partners for the vitally important alliance was another significant step forward in the AMP6 procurement process, which had  been developed to ensure organisations were selected that share Anglian’s vision who were committed to the same outcomes as its AMP6 business plan.
