However, in many construction contracts the contractor will also have substantial design responsibilities and will often employ designers to fulfil this role. Co-ordination and continuity between the employers and the contractor’s designers is therefore essential to maintain the inclusion standards. The Construction Team is responsible for manufacturing, assembling, or constructing a building, including the logistics and contractual relationships connected with this. The level of design input will be driven by the contractual obligations.’

The term ‘construction team’ can have numerous interpretations in the industry. If it involves those roles that are needed to physically construct the building, it will be different to if it involves those who are responsible for the conception, planning and design of the building, such as the architect and structural engineer.

Typically, the construction team can comprise the following roles that will be mostly site based:

Project Manager (responsible for delivering the project)

Main contractor

Site manager (clerk of works)

Site engineer

Sub-contractors

On design and build projects, where the contractor is responsible for both designing and constructing the building (and possibly for the maintenance of the completed building), the architect and engineer will be working for the contractor and therefore may be part of the construction team.

Today’s construction projects tend to be complex undertakings and on large projects can involve thousands of people. This may mean that the construction team includes other project stakeholders, such as expert suppliers whose knowledge the design team members are reliant upon.

The construction team will be tasked with physically constructing what the design team has stipulated in its documentation and specifications. During the course of the project, the construction team may be subject to periodic checks and inspections by design team members to ensure the construction is on track to meet the specification and client requirements.

= Project team =

The construction team may normally form part of the larger project team which may include the board of directors, the project board, client representatives and other stakeholders such as the building’s users.

= Design team =

In construction, the term ‘design team’ often involves the professionals that are required to design, construct and ensure the building satisfies the project brief. Traditionally, it has been led by the architect but this will depend on the method of procurement.

The design team typically comprises:

Architect

Client (with possibly independent client advisors)

Contractor

Cost consultant (quantity surveyor)

Engineers (structural, services, etc)

Interior designer

Landscape architect

Project manager.
