Establish the roles and documents
Explain whether the project is at idea stage, has planning approval or is preparing to go on site. Share any existing statutory submissions so the next questions can be identified with the team.
Services / Building control / commencement notice
Building control and commencement notice support
A clear plan for the required information and professional roles helps the project team prepare for the construction stage. Discuss the building, proposed works and current status with Des.
Practical technical coordination
The agreed scope can include organising drawing information, reviewing gaps in the technical package and coordinating inputs for commencement documentation. BCMS is the national online system used for building control submissions.
Keep responsibilities clear
Notice requirements and certification roles depend on the project and statutory process. A consultancy appointment does not automatically include an Assigned Certifier or Design Certifier role. Those roles require separate, appropriate appointments.
Requirements depend on the building and proposed works. We can review the project and identify the appropriate technical support and statutory process. Any application or specialist appointment is subject to an agreed scope.
