Compliance code checking

A compliance report is read sheet by sheet against the Building Regulations, under a fee that assumed one pass. CIM reads every drawing, specification and schedule against the clauses that apply - fire, egress, access, energy, structure - and returns each finding cited to the clause and the page. Your team writes the report; the read runs itself.

Where the pressure starts

The hours go into the read, and the fee only pays for one pass

An assessment covers hundreds of sheets across every discipline, and the fee assumed a senior assessor could read them once. Then Rev C lands mid-assessment, the fire engineer's report arrives a week late, and the client wants the compliance report before the building control deadline. The read gets shorter, the checklist gets longer, and whatever the read misses is found later - by the certifier, at inspection, or after occupation - with your name on the report.

Where it costs you

Hours you cannot bill, findings you cannot defend

Every revision means re-reading the set from page one

A missed clause surfaces at certification as rework inside a fixed fee

The report you signed rests on a read nobody can reproduce

The gap in your risk register

The bottleneck is human review capacity

Every assessment runs to hundreds of sheets, and one assessor reads them against the Building Regulations between site inspections and client calls. Then a revision lands and the read starts again. What the read misses leaves the office in a report with your name on it, while capacity stays flat and the fee absorbs every re-read.

Introducing CIM

Every sheet checked against the code in the time it takes to open the set

With CIM, the compliance read is done the hour the set lands. Every issue comes back as findings cited to the clause and the sheet - non-compliances, coordination clashes and unclouded changes - ready to be written into the report or fixed before the set goes out.

What the industry says

“CIM Build pointed to new opportunities to de-risk project documentation and procurement. It's pleasing to see how the transformation of construction is accelerating now that the serious players have embraced what good looks like. The days of starting projects with only part documentation are now in the rear view mirror.”

Why we built CIM

“I've sat through too many design meetings where everyone assumed someone else had checked it. Drawings were technically ‘issued’, procurement moved and the risk only showed up once money was already committed. CIM exists to identify those risks early - before they turn into arguments, delays, or margin erosion.”
