Two Principal Designers, One Project - The Building Regulations and CDM Roles Untangled

Episode 54

Thursday, September 24, 2026 • Duration 15:44

Ask ten people on a UK project who the principal designer is and you will get a confident answer. Ask them which principal designer you mean and the confidence usually evaporates. There are two. They are created by different legislation, they cover different things, they carry different competence requirements, and there is no rule that says the same organisation has to hold both. The Health and Safety Executive's own review of CDM 2015, which reported in May 2026, identified confusion arising from "similar but distinct roles under the Building Safety Act" and inconsistent interpretation across the market as a live problem — and it is one of the few things in that review that generated a commitment to new guidance. Until that guidance lands, the fix is contractual and it is straightforward. But you have to know what you are separating.

Gateway 2 in Real Numbers — and How Staged Submissions Cut the Wait

Episode 53

Monday, September 21, 2026 • Duration 11:03

Ask three people how long Gateway 2 takes and you will get three answers, all of them technically correct, because there are three different sets of numbers in circulation and almost nobody distinguishes them. That matters commercially, because a contractor pricing to the statutory target and a client programming to the published median are twenty weeks apart, and somebody is going to pay for the difference.

Biodiversity Net Gain's 0.2 Hectare Exemption - Measure Your Red Line Before You Do Anything Else

Episode 52

Thursday, September 17, 2026 • Duration 13:19

There is a change to biodiversity net gain that came into effect on 6 August 2026 and that a great many small developers have not registered, because it arrived quietly in amendment regulations rather than as a headline announcement. It removes mandatory BNG from roughly half of all residential planning permissions in England. The test is an area threshold, and it is measured in a way that rewards paying attention at the point you draw the red line.

The August 2026 NPPF - What Actually Changed for SME Developers

Episode 51

Monday, September 14, 2026 • Duration 21:11

A new National Planning Policy Framework was published on 17 August 2026. It is 130 pages, it is the first full rewrite since 2012, and — this is the part that changes what you do this week — its decision-making policies took effect on publication. Not on adoption of a new local plan. Not after a transition. They are material considerations in every determination and every appeal from the day it was published. For a small or medium housebuilder, five changes matter.

The Building Safety Levy Starts on 1 October - Rates, the Brownfield Discount and the Nine-Unit Question

Episode 50

Thursday, September 10, 2026 • Duration 20:43

There is a four-week window closing, and for some schemes it is worth a meaningful five-figure sum. The Building Safety Levy applies in England from 1 October 2026. It is charged on new residential development, it is collected through the building control process, and it is designed to raise around £3.4bn over ten years toward remediation. For a small developer the important parts are the trigger date, the threshold, the discount, and one collection mechanism that can hold up your sales.

The 30 September Second Staircase Deadline - What It Means If Your Scheme Is Still In Design

Episode 49

Monday, September 7, 2026 • Duration 14:21

Most of what has been written about the second staircase deadline describes a single test: get building regulations approval before 30 September 2026 and you are safe. That is half the rule, and the half that is easier to satisfy. The other half has a date eighteen months further out, a definition drawn tight enough to catch schemes that genuinely believe they have commenced, and no discretion in it at all. With 27 days to go, it is worth being precise about what the deadline does, who it still catches, and which of the two dates you should actually have in your programme.

What Is COBie - And Do You Actually Need It

Episode 48

Monday, August 17, 2026 • Duration 20:28

Few terms in the BIM world generate as much confusion — and as much box-ticking — as COBie. It appears in information requirements, gets demanded on projects that have no use for it, and is delivered as a giant spreadsheet nobody ever opens. Yet the idea behind COBie is genuinely useful. The problem is that it is often required without anyone asking the only question that matters: what is it for, and do we actually need it?

Running An Effective Project Mobilisation And Kick-Off

Episode 47

Friday, August 14, 2026 • Duration 22:03

There is a strong correlation between how a construction project starts and how it finishes. Projects that drift into life — no clear roles, vague processes, everyone assuming someone else has it covered — tend to spend the rest of their duration firefighting the confusion set up in the first few weeks. Projects that mobilise deliberately, with the team aligned and the systems in place before real work begins, spend that energy on delivery instead. Mobilisation is not administrative throat-clearing; it is where a project’s culture and control are established.

Stakeholder Management - Keeping Clients, Consultants And Contractors Aligned

Episode 46

Wednesday, August 12, 2026 • Duration 21:16

Ask an experienced project manager why projects go wrong and few will start with concrete or steel. They will talk about people — a client who was not kept informed, a consultant working to a different assumption, a contractor who found out about a change too late. Construction is a team sport played by parties with different interests, and keeping them aligned is not a soft skill at the edge of the job. It is the job. Stakeholder management is what turns a group of separately-motivated organisations into a project that pulls in one direction.

The Health & Safety File And O&M Manuals - What Goes In, And Who'S Responsible

Episode 45

Monday, August 10, 2026 • Duration 19:46

Of all the deliverables at the end of a construction project, the handover information is the one most likely to be thrown together at the last minute — a rushed box of manuals and a file assembled to tick a regulatory box. That is a mistake on two fronts. The Health and Safety File is a legal requirement under the CDM Regulations, and the operation and maintenance information is what determines whether the client can actually run and look after the building. Treated properly, both are among the most valuable things you hand over.
