Morrison Construction has secured a place as primary construction contractor on hub West Scotland's supply chain.

The tender process began in June this year and was open to contractors with an operational base in Scotland that could demonstrate a partnership approach, added value and experience of delivering public sector projects.

The appointment follows a refresh process through a PQQ submission and a selection process by hub West Scotland with input from the public sector participants and Scottish Futures Trust.

Previously, Morrison has helped deliver projects for three of the other five Hub companies.

Eddie Robertson, Morrison Construction's managing director for Central Scotland, said: "We are delighted to be able to expand our offering to public sector clients in the hub West region. As a business we have demonstrated a significant track record on the three hubs that we are an existing member of. We look forward to working with public sector bodies within the west to carry on creating a proud legacy of high-quality infrastructure for the people of Scotland."

Iain Marley, Chief Executive Officer at hub West Scotland, added: "Our supply chain renewal focused on selecting organisations who clearly demonstrate a partnering approach and are committed to adding value to the delivery of projects and programmes."
