CDM Co-ordinator

The role of co-ordinator within a CDM construction project will now be ideally carried out by a person(s) with real practical knowledge about how the workplace functions together with the competence to properly regulate the flow of information between the respective parties.

QSC believe that the HSE and other interested parties want health and safety to be a collaborative exercise rather than an adversarial stand off between the respective parties. It is very difficult for a purely office based administrative manager or professional to understand the role of an operational construction manager and the tradesmen if they do not have a good grounding in practical site work. All our staff have this value experience and are therefore more able to understand such constraints.

QSC will act as CDM Co-ordinator (CDM-C) to our clients in accordance with Regulation 20 of the CDM Regulations 2007. Duties of the CDM- C are:

  • Notification to the Health and Safety Executive of proposed building work
  • Advise and assist Clients to comply with their duties under CDM
  • Notify the HSE about the project
  • Co-ordinate design work, planning and other preparation for construction, with regard to health and safety
  • Identify and collect pre-construction information and pass to the relevant parties
  • Produce or update a health and safety file.
  • Assessment of contractors competency of via health and safety submissions.
