R&D Construction, based in Dumfries, has gone into administration after it failed to reach agreement with its bankers.  The firm is the main contractor in the housing renewal programme in Dumfries and Stranraer. Problems were first reported when the company was unable to pay all its staff last week. Ernst & Young have been called in as administrators.

R&D Construction is the building subsidiary of the R&D Construction Group and had a turnover of £7.19m as reported in the accounts up until 30th March 2010.
