The firm will also utilise an innovative prefabricated solution to create corridor and plantroom service modules.

Arc-Tech has grown to become one of Scotland's best Building Services providers and returns to the Health sector having recently completed works with NHS Forth Valley.

John Gallacher, Managing Director of Arc-Tech said: "Arc-Tech are delighted to be involved in the Stobhill Hospital contract alongside BAM Construction and Hub West Scotland. We are no strangers to the Health sector and will ensure that we are respectful to the operational environment of the hospital itself as well as maintaining our trademark levels of workmanship and customer service."

As a direct result of the contract, BAM Construction has donated two Portakabins to the Springburn Park Men's Shed, a charity that supports and resources for men of all ages suffering from depression and loneliness. In offering additional support, Arc-Tech provided electrical services to help provide power.

John continued: "It is important to give back to community and charity organisations. The Springburn Park Men's Shed is a fantastic initiative and we more than happy to provide our support."
