CDM 2007

Overview The Clients CDM Compliance KitClients CDM Compliance Kit has been

specifically designed to assist Clients to comply with their duties under the Construction (Design and Management) Regulations 2007 (CDM).

The software has been written by practising Construction Safety Professionals who have a detailed understanding and knowledge of both the construction industry and health and safety legislation.

We have also worked with a wide variety of both public and private clients, so we understand the needs and requirements of such organisations.

How is this achieved?This is achieved in a variety of ways including:

The provision of checklists which outline the duties and roles of the Client at each stage of a project

Acting as an aide memoir to ensure Clients are aware of the actions they need to take, whilst also providing an auditable record of the actions taken

Enabling Design Safety Statements (DSS), Design Safety Reviews (DSR), Design Risk Assessments (DRA) and Hazard Registers to be prepared, these provide an ideal mechanism to communicate information with other parties

Ensuring Compliance
