SiteHQ practical guide
What is a construction phase plan?
A plain-English guide to the CPP, who prepares it and how it stays useful during the work.
The short answer
A construction phase plan sets out the health and safety arrangements, site rules and project-specific measures for the construction phase. It must be prepared before work begins and kept proportionate and up to date.
A realistic example
On a multi-contractor office refurbishment, the principal contractor uses the CPP to coordinate access, welfare, emergency arrangements, higher-risk work and cooperation between trades.
How SiteHQ supports the workflow
SiteHQ can organise confirmed project information into a working CPP draft, keep revisions distinct and publish only the version approved for the project.
Primary guidance
Guidance can change. Check the current source and obtain competent or professional advice for the real project.
