Major wins in Scotland : Big wins across sectors plus substantial new capabilities

27/9/22: TClarke Scotland has won a series of major projects ranging from our largest ever residential plumbing contract to our largest ever Engineering Services project. Our move to Eurocentral has delivered key business benefits immediately, added to which we now have a new prefabrication facility in Coatbridge. Scotland MD Chris Harris reports.

We set ourselves the task at the start of this year of stepping forward as a business in Scotland. We invested in a superb new HQ premises at Eurocentral to bring our teams together, we created new in-house mechanical capabilities, and we went out into the market with a new message in engineering services – that we were ready to assume our role as a major player in the industry in Scotland.

Today we’re able to report on our largest ever engineering services project win – the Neilston Leisure Facility in Glasgow. In the last year we’ve shown the market what we can do, and this project win is proof of the progress we’ve made. 

At the same time our market-leading Residential business has shown its continued strength; we’ve just won our largest ever plumbing contract with long-term partner Keepmoat at Glenrothes.

Our electrical engineering team has also won our first major solar PV project in Scotland, thus opening a brand-new revenue stream for our regional business.  Also, we’ve opened a new prefabrication facility in Coatbridge, to compliment the group’s existing market leading in-house MMC (Modern Methods of Construction) facility, based in Stansted, Essex.

The move into Eurocentral has paid off immediately. Not just in raising our market profile and bringing us a lot closer to our client base – but equally in bringing our teams together to collaborate more effectively.

For all these reasons, this has been a year of strategic success for TClarke in Scotland. Key investments have been made and they have delivered value directly and ahead of time. The growth we have targeted has been achieved and our teams are stronger and more productive in a great new home.
