Is bigger better for water and sewerage capital programmes?

摘要

There is universal recognition of the importance of efficient delivery of capital programmes in the water sector. Plenty of effort is deployed during the price control cycle to measure, benchmark, review, audit and report on how efficiently water and sewerage companies are delivering their capital programmes. Ofwat, WICS and NIAUR all place significant pressure and incentives on companies to deliver their programmes efficiently and all the companies I have worked with share this aspiration.
