CDM Coordinator

Most non-residential construction works, including demolition, fall under the Construction (Design and Management) Regulations 2007 (CDM Regulations), which in turn, for the majority of projects, require the appointment of a CDM Co-ordinator. Such an appointment, for which the Client is legally responsible, should be made as close to the project inception stage as possible.

The CDM Regulations were first introduced in1994 and aimed to reduce the risks associated with construction works by legislating how construction works should be managed. The revised 2007 regulations place a greater duty on the client to ensure that they appoint appropriate and competent consultants.

The role of the CDM coordinator (CDM-C) includes advising the client on their legal duties as well as facilitating appropriate coordination between the designers and the principle contractor. The CDM-C can also assist in the assessment of competency of the client's appointed team.
