ClearRegs Projects gives architects and principal designers a compliance register organised by RIBA stage. Track the regulatory requirements identified for the project, the evidence recorded against each one, and progress against the actions supporting the Principal Designer role as the design develops.
The rest of the team works in the same register. Invite engineers, the principal contractor and specialist consultants by email, decide whether each can edit or only view, and let them record evidence against the requirements that belong to their work. Every entry is attributed and dated, and access is per project, so bringing someone into one job does not open the others.
ClearRegs Projects brings the requirements identified for your project into a structured register organised by RIBA stage. Track progress against each item, link the supporting evidence and maintain one clear record for building control review.
A structured project record, not another spreadsheet.
Illustrative. The register spans RIBA stages 0 to 7.
ClearRegs Projects gives you a single view of the requirements identified for the project, organised across the RIBA stages. See what has been addressed, where evidence is still needed and which actions remain outstanding before each project milestone.
Illustrative example. Stages 0 to 7, statuses as recorded in the register.
ClearRegs Projects records the requirements, responsibilities, decisions and supporting evidence entered by the project team. This can help demonstrate the structured processes used by the Principal Designer and provide a traceable account of what was recorded, by whom and when.
The record supports the Principal Designer’s work. It does not determine that a statutory duty has been discharged or that a design complies with the Building Regulations.
Organise the requirements identified for the project by RIBA stage, assign actions and track their progress as the design develops.
ClearRegs maintains a timestamped history of recorded statuses and changes. RIBA stages provide a project management structure; they are not statutory compliance deadlines.
Assign each register item to a named member of the project team and record the design information and evidence connected with it.
This helps make task ownership and outstanding actions visible across the design team. Assigning an item in ClearRegs does not appoint a statutory dutyholder or replace the Principal Designer’s responsibility to coordinate the designers.
Link requirements to drawings, specifications, design decisions and other supporting evidence. Relevant passages from indexed regulatory sources can be attached to the project record so that the basis of a decision can be reviewed in context.
A citation supports traceability; it does not by itself establish that the design complies.
Maintain a shared record of design requirements, decisions, revisions and outstanding information for discussion with the Principal Contractor. The register and exported schedule can support information exchange, review and project handover.
They do not replace the health and safety file required under CDM 2015 or any prescribed higher-risk building information.
For higher-risk building work, organise register items against the BSR building control approval and completion stages commonly called Gateways Two and Three. The project record can support the management of design information, changes and evidence associated with those stages.
ClearRegs does not operate the statutory golden thread or mandatory occurrence reporting system, and it does not prepare, submit or approve Gateway applications.
A timestamped project record can help demonstrate that structured arrangements were used to manage design compliance, allocate responsibilities and retain supporting information. This may contribute to evidence of organisational capability and a diligent approach.
Competence must still be established separately through the relevant skills, knowledge, experience and behaviours, or, for an organisation, its policies, procedures, systems and resources.
When ClearRegs Search identifies a relevant passage, clause or diagram, add the result directly to a compliance item in ClearRegs Projects.
The answer text, source citation and clause or page reference are attached to the project item and organised under the relevant RIBA stage without copying and pasting.
You can also open a source document and select a region of the page directly, capturing a figure, table or clause as an image against the requirement it supports. Each capture keeps the document, the document and the page it came from.
This creates a traceable record of the research supporting each item, while keeping the source material connected to the project team’s decisions and evidence.
ClearRegs supports professionals tracking compliance across projects. It does not determine or guarantee compliance, and it does not replace building control.
ClearRegs fits within your normal design process, helping the project team carry requirements, research and supporting evidence through one shared record.
Enter the building type, use and project scope, together with the information used to assess whether the higher-risk building regime may apply.
ClearRegs starts the project register with requirements selected from its indexed sources for review by the project team.
Use ClearRegs Search to identify relevant passages, clauses and diagrams.
Add the answer, source citation and clause or page reference directly to the relevant project item.
As the design develops, organise requirements by RIBA stage, update their status and link drawings, specifications and other supporting evidence.
Assign each action to a named team member and maintain a timestamped record of what was recorded and when.
Export the project register and its evidence references as a structured PDF for review, project handover or, where appropriate, inclusion in a building control submission.
The export supports the statutory process; it does not replace the prescribed application documents or building control approval.
