CDM Advisory Services
The Construction (Design and Management) Regulations (CDM) 2015 set out the standards and requirements for construction safety. They aim to protect people from harm during construction and ensure that buildings are safe to use. All construction projects, including new builds, refurbishments and demolition works, are subject to these regulations.
By ensuring that safety is at the forefront of the construction, risks are eliminated or reduced, accidents are prevented, and structures are fit for purpose. Our CDM advisory service can help you navigate the intricacies of these regulations with confidence.
Our highly experienced, APS-registered CDM consultants provide a full range of services for a wide variety of projects, from small developments to large, complex schemes. We offer flexible solutions, whether as a stand-alone service or as part of a seamless integration with existing teams. We help ensure compliance and safety throughout the project lifecycle by equipping construction professionals with the knowledge they need to maintain a safe working environment, whether they are the Client, Principal Designer or Principal Contractor.
What sets us apart from other CDM consultants is our broader compliance capability and multi-disciplinary approach. This adds value to a wide range of projects, including those requiring environmental, ecological and asbestos risk management. Our comprehensive risk management solutions help you gain a complete and holistic view of risk exposure and performance.
Our in-depth knowledge and understanding of the roles and requirements of the Client, Principal Designer and Principal Contractor make us a trusted CDM partner. We can support each of these roles individually or collectively, depending on the project. By providing competent and cost-effective advice, we can help you meet all the requirements of CDM 2015.
