BAM Nuttall is a leading civil engineering business, delivering design and construction services, creating sustainable environments that enhance people’s lives.
We are committed to net zero carbon operations by 2030.
Whole lifecycle collaboration
From offices around the country, our teams collaborate with public and private sector clients to create and maintain sustainable outcomes while delivering long-lasting social value for the communities we live and work in.
To help us deliver projects and services in a lean, green and more efficient way, we use the latest digital technologies and modern construction methods. We heavily invest in skills that underpin our self delivery capability. And are supported by expert partners and a highly valued supply chain of specialist subcontractors.
We constantly strive to improve the built environment by attracting and developing a more diverse workforce and reducing the carbon emissions associated with how infrastructure is designed, built, and maintained throughout its lifecycle.
We are a high-performing design and construction partner who collaborates with our infrastructure clients and supply chain, forging strong, strategic alliances that create value and deliver sustainable outcomes.
Protecting homes and communities Our work spans multiple sectors including rail, road, energy, tunnelling, ground engineering, flood prevention and water schemes.
The Environment Agency, part of DEFRA (Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs), is one of our long-term clients. We have been a key partner for many years, helping to reduce flood risk and manage river levels through coastal protection schemes, river engineering and flood alleviation works, including:
Broadland flood alleviation project A 20-year public partnership project, working with design partner, Jacobs, to design, construct and maintain river and flood alleviation schemes. Covering 30,000 hectares of environmentally and economically sensitive land, our work has provided sustainable and affordable, long-term flood defences for rural communities.
Water and Environment Management (WEM) Framework
Since 2013 we have designed and built, as BMMJV Ltd in a joint venture with Mott MacDonald, flood alleviation and coastal schemes to better protect over 70,000 properties from flooding.
The schemes include Boston Barrier, Humber Hull Frontages, River Hull Defences, Exeter Flood Alleviation Scheme and Dawlish Warren.
Our work has provided a significant contribution to the Environment Agency’s six-year programme target of 300,000 homes better protected by March 2021.
Leeds Flood Alleviation Scheme Phases 1 & 2 We're protecting 1,048 homes and 474 businesses from flood risk, working as BMMJV on Phase 2 of the scheme.
Collaborative Delivery Framework (CDF) We are currently construction delivery partner for the Environment Agency in the North East and Eastern Hubs, protecting homes and communities by reducing flood risk and managing river levels.
Luton flood storage area We are working for the Environment Agency, South East Midlands Local Enterprise Partnership (SEMLEP) and Luton Borough Council to benefit 600 residential and commercial properties, along with key infrastructure, in Luton.
The new flood storage area can hold back 140,000m³ of water, equivalent to 56 Olympic sized swimming pools, at times of heavy rain - it will then allow it to drain slowly and under control into the Houghton Brook.
