How do we deliver it?

Programmes are planned street by street, so each resident sees one coordinated set of works rather than several contractors on different dates.

Social landlords are commercial clients under the Construction (Design and Management) Regulations 2015, so the full client duties apply. Where there is more than one contractor, the client appoints a principal designer and a principal contractor.
