Construction Planning &

Management of Site Wide

ArrangementsGenerally, much construction work is transient and therefore the needs

of the site can change daily.

Many accidents that occur on site, can often be attributed to poor

planning, design and installation of temporary works.Source: CITB GE700C

In order to get things “right” the Principal Contractor must be provided

with relevant site information and suitable space.
