The company has been boosted by the start of concrete, substructure and superstructure works at the new Southern General Hospital in Glasgow. The works are being delivered in partnership with lead contractor Brookfield Multiplex, with the contract pipeline scheduled to run well into 2015.

Dunne has also expanded its regional office network during the year from Manchester and Leeds down to London, following a number of successful packages between the group companies in the capital on the Olympic Athletes’ Village, The Shard and at Milton Court.

The Dunne Group has also secured a £35m concrete package on the 100 Bishopsgate project in the City of London.

Managing director Gordon Dunne said: “The past financial year has been busy, challenging but very successful for us as we expand our client base across the UK. A critical element of our recent financial performance has been our policy of re-investment in new equipment and infrastructure, which has enabled us to maintain our position as a leader in the field of new building techniques as we continue to deliver innovative works on iconic projects.

“Going forward, our expansion into new market regions provides us with a confident outlook as we continue to secure new business opportunities across a resurgent market place.”
