The design process is becoming increasingly fragmented. Responsibility is being pushed into the supply chain, often through contracts that are simply not fit for purpose. That leaves the industry facing a critical question: who really owns the detail?
This webinar examines how the current Contractor Design Portion (CDP) model is being tested by modern regulatory demands, and why unclear interfaces, incomplete design, and unmanaged risk are not just undermining safety and compliance, but impacting the insurability of work and ultimately buildings.
Particularly relevant to Chartered Architectural Technologists and professionals undertaking designer and Principal Designer roles, the session will examine the growing prevalence of deferred design, how we manage “nominal details”, and blurred design responsibility across project teams. It will also consider the contractual and practical mechanisms driving these issues and crucially, the implications for competence, coordination and accountability within the design and construction process.
