CDM

Embed Health, Safety and Compliance into Every Stage of Your Construction Project

CDM

Compliance, Health and Safety at Every Stage

Construction projects carry inherent risks, from design through to delivery. The Construction (Design and Management) Regulations 2015 (CDM) provide a legal framework to manage health, safety, and welfare across all phases of construction work in the UK.
 

Arthian helps clients, designers, and contractors navigate CDM responsibilities with confidence. Whether you’re planning a new build, refurbishment, or infrastructure upgrade, our consultants provide practical, proportionate support to ensure compliance and reduce risk.
 

We work across sectors and scales, supporting commercial, public sector, and infrastructure clients to embed CDM into project governance, design, and delivery.

Our Construction, Design and Management Services

Our services include:

Principal Designer Services
CDM Client Responsibilities

Principal Designer Services

The Principal Designer plays a critical role in managing health and safety during the pre-construction phase. They coordinate design risk management, ensure legal duties are fulfilled, and act as a central point for health and safety information.
 

Arthian provides Principal Designer services that are proactive, collaborative, and compliant. We help ensure that health and safety is considered from the earliest stages of design, reducing risk and improving project outcomes.
 

Our services include:

     

  • Leading design risk reviews and coordination
  • Preparing and managing pre-construction information
  • Liaising with clients, designers, and contractors
  • Supporting design teams to eliminate or reduce foreseeable risks
  • Ensuring health and safety is embedded into design decisions


 

Whether you’re delivering a complex infrastructure project or a small refurbishment, we help you fulfil Principal Designer duties with confidence and clarity.

CDM Client Responsibilities

Under CDM 2015, clients have a legal duty to make suitable arrangements for managing health and safety throughout the project lifecycle. This includes appointing competent dutyholders, ensuring adequate resources, and maintaining oversight of health and safety performance.
 

Arthian supports clients to understand and fulfil their CDM responsibilities, providing strategic advice, documentation support, and ongoing governance.
 

Our services include:

     

  • Advising on CDM roles, appointments, and legal duties
  • Developing CDM governance frameworks and procedures
  • Reviewing and approving pre-construction and construction phase plans
  • Monitoring compliance and performance throughout the project
  • Supporting communication with regulators and stakeholders


 

We help clients move beyond compliance, embedding health and safety into project culture, decision-making, and delivery.
