Our NEBOSH Construction qualified CDM Expert Consultants became a key part of the project team and supported the PD to implement a design risk strategy for the project and helped to manage the liaison and coordination with the wider design team, including other designers and stakeholders. 

During the pre-construction phases our Consultant was heavily involved in design team meetings to assist in the design and update of risk registers for the project and ensuring that risks were communicated to all personnel and stakeholders to prevent delays and issues occurring later on in the project’s duration. We have regularly attended meetings throughout the project to support the PD in organising and reviewing the health and safety file prior to handover of each phase to ensure the requirements of the PD role are met.

We helped to formulate the phasing of the construction phase relating to key stages and areas of the work in order to compartmentalise and minimise the risk. This approach of managing risk through design also meant that the number of area shutdowns required for stripping out and construction works were kept to an absolute minimum and that alternative transit routes for customers could be put in place safely.
