The Importance of Pre-Construction Information

Under CDM 2015, the provision of clear and accurate pre-construction information (PCI) is essential to managing risk. This information allows designers and contractors to understand existing hazards and plan works safely.

Without adequate PCI, risks may only become apparent once works are underway, leading to delays, additional costs, and increased safety concerns.

Why PCI matters

• Identifies existing site risks early.

• Supports informed design decisions.

• Enables contractors to plan safe construction methods.

Airey Miller’s approach

We support clients in compiling and reviewing PCI to ensure it is:

• Relevant and proportionate to the project.

• Clearly communicated to all dutyholders.

• Kept up to date as the design evolves.

Benefits for housing providers

• Reduced uncertainty at construction stage.

• Fewer unforeseen risks on site.

• Improved project planning and delivery.

Conclusion

Good information at the outset leads to safer, more efficient projects.
