Structure, basements & ground

Construction Management Plans

A planning-stage construction management plan covering working methods, neighbour protection and site management.

When this service may be useful

Many councils require a construction management plan for basements, demolition and works on constrained sites, either with the application or by condition before work starts.

How the work is approached

The plan sets out working hours, site set-up, construction methods and the measures that protect neighbours, coordinated with any construction logistics plan for the highway.

What you receive

You receive a planning-stage plan for submission. Once a contractor is appointed, the plan is usually updated with their specific arrangements.

What we need to start

Site layout, proposed works, programme assumptions and access constraints.

We review the site, proposal and planning stage to agree the appropriate scope. The work is carried out by a suitably qualified specialist we appoint, named in your fee proposal.

Who updates the plan once a contractor is appointed?

The contractor normally updates it with their own arrangements. We can review the update against the approved plan within a separate instruction.

What information should I provide to get started?

Site layout, proposed works, programme assumptions 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.
