GN73 Organisational and Individual Competence

The Building Safety Act (BSA) and its associated secondary legislation are all-encompassing, and impact every aspect of the built environment, from the initial design and construction phases to the handover and ongoing management of buildings. The secondary legislation also introduces new competence requirements for building professionals, as well as additional supply chain responsibilities. This means that all those involved in the design, construction and operation of buildings must have the necessary skills and knowledge to do their job safely.
