Principal Designer of CDM

PRINCIPAL DESIGNER OF CDM

Since the introduction of the Construction Design and Management Regulations 2015, there has been a legal requirement to appoint a Principal Designer.

As Principal Designers, we adopt a hands on approach to CDM.

By using industry guidance and keeping up-to-date with legislative changes, we ensure each project is delivered in a way that protects the health and safety of everyone during and after construction.

HEALTH & SAFETY FIRST

The regulations aim to help the industry:

sensibly plan the work so the risks involved are managed from start to finish
have the right people for the right job at the right time
cooperate and coordinate your work with others
have the right information about the risks and how they are being managed
communicate this information effectively to those who need to know
consult and engage with workers about the risks and how they are being managed
consider all potential hazards throughout design stages

WORKING WITH CONTRACTORS

As the appointed Principal Designer, NIXON will, together with the contractors, ensure health and safety regulations are compiled with and advise those working on each of our sites.

Director Tony Slevin is an experienced project manager and quantity surveyor as well as a principal designer and member of the Royal Institute of Chartered Surveyors (RICS) who can talk you through your CDM responsibilities.
