New BSR staged application guidance will ‘speed up construction’
AI Article Summary
New guidance developed by the Building Safety Regulator (BSR) and Construction Leadership Council (CLC) on submitting staged applications for higher risk buildings (HRBs) at gateway two will be published soon. This new process aims to streamline construction projects by speeding up submission and approval times. The guidance intends to enhance efficiency and address safety concerns for builders working on high-risk sites. Details about this initiative were shared in a letter to BSR committee members.
What This Means for Canadian Contractors
For Canadian builders, this means exploring the potential for similar guidance to improve permit processes and safety compliance on high-risk projects. This project shows how regulatory adjustments can significantly enhance efficiencies in timelines and possibly reduce costs by minimizing bureaucratic delays. Canadian contractors could benefit from analyzing these strategies to see if they can apply similar concepts to streamline their own construction timelines.
