CDM 2015 — construction design and management

CDM 2015 sets duties for clients, designers, principal designers, principal contractors and contractors on UK construction work.

Summary only — not legal advice. Check the official sources below.

The Construction (Design and Management) Regulations 2015 apply to most construction projects in Great Britain.

Clients must make suitable arrangements for managing a project. Larger or longer jobs may need a principal designer and principal contractor.

Pre-construction information, a construction phase plan, and a health and safety file are core documents on many jobs.

F10 notification applies when a project is notifiable. Always check the current HSE CDM pages for thresholds.

How Pure Projects helps

Pure Projects holds projects, milestones, tasks, time, workload, reports and a client portal. It is not a full CDM / RAMS / inductions desk in the current build — use it for the job record, not as a substitute for a complete CDM pack.
