Design Risk Management Toolkit (40 page template)
CDM and BSA compliance
Regulatory change and skills uncertainty is always worrying.
This DRM toolkit enables you to take control.
Demonstrate compliance, empower your design processes and professional ability to confidently impress teams and clients.
Equip yourself to undertake the PD role, earn more fees, give best advice and make your clients aware of their duties - all in one easy to use template.
The DRM Toolkit provides a best practice template and takes its lead from the work undertaken jointly between the RIBA and HSE. The HSE is activity encouraging architects to take a central role. Endless spreadsheets need to be replaced with visually clear statements and a shift away from misleading construction focussed terminology regarding ‘Design’ Risk Management.
By adopting this concise system you are automatically demonstrating compliance to plan, manage and monitor the design phases.
It provides a structured process to engage the whole team and manage the ‘design’ risks associated with a project, and is accordingly named the Design Risk Management (DRM) Toolkit.
Part 1 has a focus on safety as required by the CDM regulations (including the Workplace) and when complete, forms the Pre-Construction Information (PCI) and Health & Safety File.
Part 2 manages the Building Safety Act (BSA) and demonstrates compliance with the technical aspects of a project under the Building Regulations, and when complete illustrates the Golden Thread Information which can be used for the Fire & Emergency File (FEF).
An action tracker supports team activities and helps manage the timely flow of information.
These are live documents and should form part of every DTM agenda.
Never lose track of a project status or regulation with embedded hyperlinks to specific regulations and guidance material. The assembled digital toolkit in PowerPoint makes for an easy to use, editable format: cut and paste drawings, annotations and status monitoring. Master templates and tables provide standard formatting and have been created to support the workflow.
Driven by regulation our industry faces a seismic shift and Architects are in the best place to make a difference. This is a creative toolkit designed by an architect for architects. Load it up and you’re already halfway there.
Why wait? It's oven baked and ready to go!
