Construction Logistics Plans

A planning-stage approach to managing construction access and logistics.

When this service may be useful

A construction logistics plan explains how construction access and movements are intended to be managed at the planning stage. It is useful where constrained streets, neighbouring uses or site access require early coordination.

How the work is approached

We coordinate the supplied programme, site layout and anticipated construction activities to set out the agreed logistics approach. The plan addresses relevant matters such as deliveries, access, storage and responsibilities, with assumptions identified for later contractor confirmation.

What you receive

You receive the agreed planning-stage plan. Detailed contractor methodology, operational management and construction-phase updates are separate unless expressly included in the appointment.

What we need to start

Site layout, anticipated works and access constraints.

We review the site, proposal and planning stage to agree the appropriate scope. Specialist surveys and assessments are coordinated where needed.

Make an enquiry
Does the plan replace the contractor’s working method?

No. A planning-stage logistics plan explains the agreed access and movement approach. Detailed contractor methodology, operational management and later construction-phase updates remain separate unless included in the appointment.

What information should I provide to get started?

Site layout, anticipated works and access constraints.

How is the fee for this service confirmed?

The price shown is a starting estimate for the stated scope. We review the site, proposal, available information and required deliverables, then confirm the fee, exclusions and programme in a written quotation before appointment.

How do your specialists work together on a project?

We bring the relevant planning consultants and specialist providers into a coordinated project team. They work from an agreed brief and current proposal, with dependencies and design changes discussed across disciplines. Each consultant remains responsible for their own professional advice and agreed deliverables.

PART OF A COORDINATED APPOINTMENT

Your specialist evidence, connected.

This service can form part of a wider coordinated planning appointment. We bring the relevant consultants together to work alongside your design team, discuss assessment findings and identify how recommendations affect other reports and the proposal.

Your fee proposal confirms who prepares each document, the information it relies on and the limits of the instruction. A report provides evidence for the council’s assessment; the planning decision remains the council’s. Explore how our consultants work together or discuss the team your project needs.
