Construction Phase Planning: Setting Projects Up for Success

The transition from design to construction is a critical stage in any project. Under CDM 2015, effective planning during this phase ensures that risks identified during design are properly managed on site.

The Principal Designer (CDM) plays a key role in supporting this transition by ensuring that relevant information is passed to the Principal Contractor.

Key considerations

  • Clear communication of design risks.

  • Alignment between design intent and construction methods.

  • Ensuring the Construction Phase Plan reflects key hazards.
