The expression of requirements, whether general specifications (CDC) or special technical clauses (CCTP), is the essential component of the construction file. It must be carried out with precision by the contractor (who has ordered the construction), in collaboration with its advisers (project management support (AMO), the architect, the engineering firm, etc.).

Expression of requirements

The expression of requirements refers to the technical specifications, regulatory constraints and standards, and also to process-related requirements, aesthetic criteria, and even the performance to be achieved, for example in terms of thermal or acoustic insulation.

The precision of the expression of requirements could include a section at the initiative and advice of the project manager, or the manufacturing companies.

The expression of these requirements can be translated as follows:

  • Type of need
  • Use of the construction
  • Installation location: in an industrial or commercial zone, in France or in Europe
  • Dimensions
  • Applicable regulations
  • Provisional planning for the execution
  • Administrative, organisational, legal, regulatory, technical constraints, etc.

For the construction of a removable modular building, it is a question of choosing the solution most adapted to the type of needs. In the case where the standardised solution is not satisfactory, it can be adapted to meet the expected functionalities.

Who expresses these requirements?

It is possible that the requirements are only partially expressed by the contractor, who is not a construction expert, especially if it cannot count on supporting advice.

In this case, it falls to the company offering its services to advise and support the contractor in the expression of requirements.
Locabri offers its advice and support to help you choose from its range of solutions.
