Gordon Cunningham, managing director, Clark Contracts, said: “Having worked with the University of Glasgow since the 1990’s, we are thrilled to be continuing our longstanding partnership for a fifth decade.

“The University of Glasgow has created a strategic framework which is very much in line with our own strategy of working with customers who embrace partnerships at all levels and stages of the construction process.

“One of my first projects when I joined Clark Contracts in 1999, was a refurbishment within the Garscube campus, and since then, we have refurbished and built many new buildings across the entire university campus. Our knowledge and experience of the university’s estate, enables us to deliver innovation from the design stages, working in partnership with all stakeholders, to ensure we achieve best value.

“We look forward to building upon our shared aspirations and continuing our partnership over the coming years to support the University of Glasgow with the delivery of their ambitious Estate Strategy.”
