��Ӱֱ�� is the new partner for leading international infrastructure group Balfour Beatty’s Strategic Design Partnership. ��Ӱֱ�� joins Atkins and Mott MacDonald as one of Balfour Beatty’s three pre-appointed design consultants, bringing together the best design and engineering capabilities in the industry.

Formed in 2017, the Strategic Design Partnership aims to re-frame the designer-contractor relationship, providing Balfour Beatty’s customers with earlier access to a coordinated and collaborative design and construction team with a shared vision on delivering best value solutions.

The strategic partnership aims to do this through collaboration, designing solutions for complex construction and infrastructure projects in key areas such as health and safety, through to sustainability, social value, and Modern Methods of Construction.

“We are delighted to welcome ��Ӱֱ�� to our Strategic Design Partnership, joining together with Atkins and Mott MacDonald as we continue to re-frame the designer-contractor relationship and drive enhanced collaboration and innovation across the construction and infrastructure industry,” says Balfour Beatty Chief Executive Officer for Major Projects Transport, Energy and Power at Balfour Beatty, Stephen Tarr.

“At Balfour Beatty, we truly believe that collaborative partnerships such as the Strategic Design Partnership have the opportunity to revolutionize our industry and must be considered as the vehicle of choice to ensure that projects are procured, designed and delivered faster, better and greener.”

“The Strategic Design Partnership enables closer integration of our collective expertise to drive efficiencies and co-create value-focused solutions for long-term transformation,” adds ��Ӱֱ�� People & Places Solutions Vice President and Executive Sponsor Bruce Chalmers. “This is an exciting opportunity to help shape the future of U.K. infrastructure delivery, putting sustainability and different ways of working at the heart to build better outcomes for society and the environment.”

��Ӱֱ�� brings its breadth of expertise and domain knowledge of critical infrastructure programs to enhance the partnership as it continues to deliver best value for customers. ��Ӱֱ��’ longstanding relationship with Balfour Beatty spans impactful programs across the U.K. like the Elizabeth line, the Tideway Tunnel project to upgrade London’s sewer system, the Thames Estuary Asset Management (TEAM 2100) program to create a long-term approach to managing tidal flood defenses in London and the Thames Estuary, and in joint venture on the Sellafield Nuclear Waste Processing Program.
