About CDM Wizard

CDM Wizard will help you to plan and organise your construction job and work together with others involved to make sure that the work is carried out without risks to health and safety. It will also help you to comply with the Construction (Design and Management) Regulations 2015 (CDM 2015); applicable across Great Britain.


The app asks you questions about what you will be doing and the nature of the work. Most of the questions are answered with simple tick-boxes, allowing you to complete the whole process in less than 5 minutes. An action plan is then generated that can be viewed instantly on your device or can be emailed to whoever needs it. This is the Construction Phase Plan for your job and required under CDM 2015. The plan includes:

- Details of your job and activities
- Potential health and safety risks
- Measures to stay healthy and safe


Anyone who works in the building industry will find this app useful. It has been developed for use on small scale jobs such as domestic client work e.g.

- installing a kitchen
- building an extension
- structural refurbishment
- roofing work


A simple plan before work starts, is usually enough to show that you have thought about health and safety.


Under CDM 2015, every construction project needs a Construction Phase Plan. Somebody needs to be named in the plan as the person in overall control, regardless of the number of trades/contractors/sub-contractors working on the job.


That somebody has a duty under CDM 2015 as the Principal Contractor to plan and organise the work, and work together with others in the project to ensure health and safety standards are maintained.


The advice given in the app is based on sound industry practice and covers common risks and suggested control measures needed to keep workers healthy and safe.

Fantastic app if you a principal contractor. If you are anything else you will find this rather tedious and you 3rd party safety approval scheme will still probably ask for it. The safety part is great the planning part lacking if you are doing any jobs for an hour. Please let us enter an end date on the same day.

As a gas engineer working on breakdowns which are typically less than one hour this app is difficult to use. One fault is you cannot start and finish a job on the same day. Other issues include having to look up and rely all the address info required on a small hand held device. Another example of H&S going too far!

Really disappointing, won't load won't run, tried 4 devices, why launch something if it hasn't been tested ?????? Thank you for your prompt reply, to your untested App, do appreciate it. We tried three ACER PC's running Windows 8 and an Android phone, ??? None of them worked , or installed.. I am , on e-bay, Amazon, Face Book, e-mails etc, I am trained in Quantum Physic's, Epigenetics, NLP and Hypnosis,

Thats 3 times I've entered job details just for the app to crash at the email report stage.

Update 09/03/15: Now that the below issues have been fixed; this is a good app and I have upgraded to 5 stars. This is a good idea, but this app needs more work. On the "job address" entry, unless the box is ticked "same" as client address (i.e. you type address in "other") it does not let you move on. Also, despite trying it a few times, it does not email the "plan", in fact, it didn't email at all. I will uninstall for now and wait until it is more established, and the bugs removed.

Flawed clunky and not sufficiently diverse, a huge number of issues with this, for a start what happens to all the information provided? does this app gather information about contractors and their clients? During a test run a relatively simple job resulted in a 22 page document, is this truly reducing bureaucracy as promised in the consultation.

by D####:

Downloaded the app yesterday . It would not accept the actual address of the project would only allow me to select the same address as the client. It was easy to follow through and complete and the email function worked with the attachment sent as a pdf. It does concern me that because many of the questions were just a tick responce that once complete and printed off a lot of contractor may feel they have done everything they need to do and file it away .It would be useful to have a task approach with set reminders in the app to ensure that the contractor is constantly having to review and update for the duration of the project

Great App, unable to send the report on email..!?

D70%
by D####:

Couple of issues one with the final email process It doesn't attach to the email. The other is the process of inputting the address lines if a second address is inserted it won't let you proceed to the next stage unless the tick box for same address is ticked.
