Water Supply and Treatment
Water collection, treatment to the required standard, and then
distribution to where it is needed, is an essential building block
of the modern world. Water is rarely most abundant where the
need is greatest, and population growth and increasing
environmental standards drive the need for improvements both in
volume of supply and the quality of water needed.
Scott Wilson provides the full range of water services including
water treatment works, collection and distribution pipe networks,
dams and storage reservoirs, irrigation systems and desalination
plants. Our technical services to support water supply include
civil engineering; hydraulics; electrical and mechanical; process,
project and programme management; and health and safety.
We also provide services which enable the more efficient
management and use of water including leakage detection, design of
water recycling systems, water usage audits, and water use
minimisation plans. The scale of our projects ranges from specific
water projects such as individual treatment works, through to
planning for large developments and preparation of long-term water
strategies on a regional basis.
Scott Wilson provides a start-to-completion service which can
include any or all of the following stages:
- Network modelling
- Pre-feasibility, feasibility, outline and detailed
design
- Tender and contract documents, including traditional,
design and construct and PFI
- Contract administration and site supervision
- Commissioning and audit
- Due diligence assessment for lenders, funders and

- Our familiarity with the latest techniques, and
availability of in-house experts in specialisms such as process,
allow us to identify and provide innovative solutions which provide
optimal solutions in terms of whole-life cost. Increasingly
we provide solutions which not only reduce cost, but also minimise
energy usage and reduce carbon footprint.
