How do we deliver it?

We start by checking the programme data against what our surveyors find, because ordering components for the wrong homes is the most expensive mistake in planned works.

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.
