A huge thank you to CiarΓ‘n Fox, the The Royal Society of Ulster Architects, and Professor Joan McCoy McCoy of White Ink Architects for delivering such an important CPD session on the Building Safety Act as its implementation continues to evolve in Northern Ireland.
The session reinforced the critical importance of competence, compliance, and accountability across the construction sectorβprinciples that are central to the successful delivery of higher-risk residential buildings.
Thanks also to James Eyre of Titanic Quarter, Stephen Miskelly of RMI Architects, and Stephen McGuigan MSc, MCIOB, PMP McGuigan of FLYNN (Maurice Flynn & Sons Ltd) for sharing practical insights from our ongoing work at ARC Apartments, one of the largest and most significant Building Safety projects currently being delivered in Northern Ireland. The project is setting new benchmarks for compliance, resident safety, quality assurance, and collaborative working, demonstrating how clients, designers, and contractors can work together to deliver safer buildings and meet emerging regulatory requirements.
We are incredibly proud of the entire project team and the professionalism, competence, and commitment they continue to demonstrate as we deliver this landmark scheme and help shape the future of building safety in Northern Ireland.
As the industry adapts to a new era of building safety, projects such as ARC Apartments provide a real-world example of how competence, compliance and collaboration are essential to delivering safer homes and better outcomes for residents.
