Siemens Industry UK and Morgan Sindall Group plc, a leading UK construction and regeneration group, have today announced the signing of a Memorandum of Understanding that will see the two companies enter a strategic technology and infrastructure partnership.

The MoU represents a reciprocal trading agreement between Siemens, its associated companies, and Morgan Sindall. It comes into effect immediately. Siemens will become one of Morgan Sindall’s key technology partners, providing advice and guidance in relation to technical and technological aspects of projects delivered across its business. The partnership will allow Morgan Sindall to exploit advantages of scale, including life cycle cost benefits as well as commercial and technical benefits relating to the supply of Siemens products, services and solutions.

Siemens Industry UK MD, Juergen Maier, said, “I am proud that our two businesses will work together to develop key UK infrastructure projects – it is a sign that we are optimistic about growth, and that we are more than confident to invest in the UK marketplace. Morgan Sindall MD, Graham Shennan, added, “Siemens chose to partner with Morgan Sindall Group because of our strong sector alignment, our geographical spread right across the UK and our common expertise in infrastructure development throughout the country. We are both multi-disciplinary organisations with capabilities shared across each company and we already use Siemens products across many of our key projects.”
