Efficient Service Delivery, which consists of Black & Veatch, Galliford Try and MWH Treatment, is Scottish Water's non-infrastructure alliance partner and is responsible for delivery of work including reservoirs, water treatment works and pumping stations. The alliance has placed an emphasis on forward thinking, and sparked a new approach to collaboration through digital engineering when it began work in 2015 on the £29 million project to replace Tullich Water Treatment Works near Oban. Strong working relation- ships had already been established within the project team as the result of previous joint ventures involving the ESD contractors, and many among them were well acquainted with modern BIM tools. "We brought a different way of thinking about project delivery to Scottish Water," ESD project manager Kenny Jones told WET News in 2019. "Our digital delivery platform was relatively new technology to Scottish Water, and it meant a new way of working – it brought an open dialogue between all the parties and a joined-up approach to getting the best out of construction activities." Other recent projects carried out by ESD include a £5.5 million project to install 342 solar panels on the roof of Scottish Water's main water treatment works in Ross-shire (pictured below); a £3.4 million project to provide improved drinking water storage facilities for Nairn and Auldearn; a £6.5 million expansion of the water treatment works at Airigh Na Gaoithe, including fitting upgraded water treatment equipment and controls; and major water main installations.
