Join us for an insightful professional discussion between Andrew Terry, Director of CentremapsLive and Jeremy Haigh, Director of Apogee. They delve into the intricacies of CDM Risk Assessments, exploring how these assessments help in identifying and mitigating potential risks in construction projects. Gain valuable insights into best practices, innovative approaches and the importance of comprehensive risk management in ensuring project safety and compliance. This conversation promises to be a must-watch for professionals seeking to enhance their understanding of CDM regulations and risk assessment strategies. For further details, visit our official website: www.centremapslive.co.uk 🌐 Here's a summary of the discussion: - What is a Utility CDM Risk Report? [00:56] It helps clients understand health and safety risks associated with underground utilities, especially since these are unseen. The report aids clients in navigating guidance and statutes, and provides a document for the pre-contract health and safety pack. - Why is it important? [01:33] New CDM regulations place more responsibility on clients and principal designers to ensure an adequate pre-contract health and safety pack. Many clients overlook or delay understanding utility costs and risks, which this report addresses from the outset. - Key Features: [02:18] The report includes an analysis of utility conflict against the client's proposals, detailed recommendations for safe design and construction, commentary on plans, and a summary of next steps for compliance. - Guidance and Regulations: [02:54] The report integrates guidance from the Health and Safety Executive's HSG47 ("Avoiding Danger from Underground Services") and the British Standards Institute's PAS 128. PAS 128 helps guide clients on appropriate survey levels for various circumstances and enables them to provide an adequate scope for utility practitioners. - Main Uses of the Report: [04:07] It's used by clients, designers, and contract administrators to aid in site design, understand utility conflict, and for "value engineering" to optimize placement and avoid utilities. It also assists with program risk management and overall risk avoidance. - Risk Moderation (ALARP Analysis): [04:55] The report includes an "ALARP" (as low as reasonably practicable) analysis, which is a summary of present risks in a table format. This helps clients focus on the most critical areas to mitigate risk. Practical Example (Hotwood Hall Site): [05:30] Similar to the previous video, the Hotwood Hall college project is cited. This green energy scheme involved solar panels, ground source heat pumps, and a new energy center, encountering a wide range of utility conflicts (gas, electricity, water, sewer, telecoms). The report provided clear guidance on required survey levels and accuracy for each scheme area, facilitating detailed scoping. The "fast view" feature particularly helped the client visualize high and low-risk areas and understand the utility plans. - Main Takeaways for Customers: [07:13] Clients appreciate the report for enabling them to visualize utility plant locations, especially with the "fast view," and for providing the expertise to understand what needs to be done for compliance with each utility type. Cost of the Reports: [07:57] CentremapsLive offers fixed fees, with reports retailing for sites up to 25 hectares. A utility search is a prerequisite, and a fast view is recommended for larger sites. The reports are presented as good value for managing development risks.
