Consultancy appointed to £2bn framework

Property and construction consultancy Pick Everard has doubled the size of its ground investigation team after being appointed to a £2 billion framework.

The company is the only new supplier to be awarded a place on the prestigious four-year Severn Trent AMP 7 framework, which will deliver a range of wastewater, water treatment and pipeline services projects in the Midlands and mid-Wales.

Pick Everard has already delivered four projects as part of the framework and has four more on the go, with a further three in the planning stages.

Emelye Kenyon, associate for environmental engineering at Pick Everard, said: “At Pick Everard we have provided a strong environmental offering for more than six years, while our relationship with Severn Trent has been present for over a decade, delivering valued structural survey services across its UK-wide network.

“The decision to expand our team was a natural one in line with this newest framework, which will further establish our presence in the ground investigation sector over the next four years or more.

“We look forward to continuing recruit and strengthen our offering, while maintaining our close relationship with Severn Trent, which will help improve the services it offers to its customers across the country.”
