Appointing of a CDM Champion For detailed procedures see CDM6.

A CDM champion must be appointed at an early stage of
the project within the AHMM team. He/She will be
responsible for setting-up, issuing and updating the CDM
templates and attending the regular meetings (reviews/
catch-ups) with the AHMM CDM team or with the
external Principal Designer(depending on the
appointment). The CDM champion should arrange for
regular CDM coordination meetings with the project team
if AHMM is appointed as a Principal Designer.

The template is a coverpage to the H&S file documents
which informs a table of content, information status and
guidance. The folder structure is saved within the project

process by the entire team. The information collated along with
the coverpage to be handed over to the client upon completion
of our appointment, or to the contractor if not PD during
