💧💡 Turning data into faster, smarter decisions

Following the need for visibility of thousands of storm overflow assets across the Yorkshire region, our design-and-build company, MMB, collaborated with Yorkshire Water and Autodesk to create a connected digital solution, bringing survey data, asset information and project insights together into a single source of truth.

Delivered in just nine days, the solution combined leading digital tools, including Moata and Microsoft Power BI, with MMB’s own digital capabilities to carry out more than 3,000 surveys across 2,400 locations, creating a repeatable model for data-led decision-making across the water sector.

The outcome is a scalable digital approach that provides better insight, supports faster decision-making and continues to add value across the wider water sector.

🤝 We are delighted to have secured a two-year extension to our contract with Canal & River Trust continuing our work across the north of the Trust’s waterways network until at least 2028.

The extension will see our teams continue to deliver complex repair, restoration and resilience projects across reservoirs, embankments, culverts, tunnels and aqueducts. This includes ongoing works at Slaithwaite Reservoir in West Yorkshire, where’re upgrading the overflow spillway to enhance long-term safety and resilience.

🗨️Commenting on the news, Angus Ridge, director at JN Bentley said: “The extension of our contract with the Canal & River Trust is just reward for the hard work and skill of our project teams.

“We’re proud to support the Trust in maintaining and enhancing these important assets and look forward to continuing our strong partnership in the years ahead.”

The innovators.

Innovation is playing a bigger role than ever in how we deliver our work.

From digital solutions to new safety technologies, we’re using innovation coupled with technical excellence to boost productivity, reduce risk and deliver better outcomes for our clients.

This comes in a host of different forms – from standard products that bring together modern methods of construction and DfMA principles to transformative digital innovation that supports project delivery.

Delivering infrastructure today means thinking about tomorrow.

Across our projects, we’re helping clients reduce carbon, improve efficiency and deliver more sustainable solutions. We work to give back in areas local to our projects and offices too.

As one of the UK’s largest water and wastewater contractors, we have scale and regional presence to drive meaningful change for communities – something we are proud to be tackling head-on.

Yorkshire. A region steeped in history 💧🦺🫖

Our roots in Yorkshire go right back to JN Bentley beginnings in the 1970s, when the business was founded in the Yorkshire Dales.

We’re really proud of our heritage – and although our work now spans right across the UK, head office remains in Skipton, North Yorkshire – known as the gateway to the Yorkshire Dales.

We're lucky to work on lots of innovative engineering projects, not just across the Yorkshire region but the length and breadth of the country: from water treatment upgrades and heritage
improvements, to delivering sustainable solutions to safeguard areas at risk of flooding.

☕ Today, let's raise a cuppa...for Yorkshire!
