Chartered Building Engineers & Corporate Approved Inspectors


Audit

General

Building Control Partnership Ltd are required to carry out Audits from time to time relating to the current status of projects under our control. This does not effect all property owners, you will be contacted if an Audit of the projects is required. If you have a Final Certificate from us, then you will not be Audited. This should not however, be confused with us asking you to complete a Customer Feedback Form as a normal process of gaining feedback,


The Audit if applicable, may mean yourself as the current property owner, not necessarily the original Applicant for the project, will receive a postal letter or email requesting certain information in the form of Options. You can then complete the form we send and return it to us, scanned or posted or you or use this web-page link with the User Account and Password we send you to access your project data and add the required Option number and associated details directly into our database.


GDPR (General Data Protection Regulations) must be complied with by ourselves. Whichever route you take you will be agreeing to our GDPR Data Policy, allowing your private data, if you are a relevant data subject, to be used, processed and stored in accordance with this Policy. Without this we cannot proceed and your reply will be of no-effect.


We will normally contact you within 30 working days with our response if one is required. The Audit is not a legal requirement relevant to the request for information, but the Regulations may require us, in the absence of a suitable reply to allow or action a cancellation of the project under the default regulatory requirements. This means the enforcing authority (the Local Authority) will takeover the control of the project from ourselves, requiring the property owner to contact them and to then follow their instructions. This is pursuant to The Building Act 1984 and The Approved Inspectors Regulations 2010 (as amended) and will occur without further contact with the property owner. The project will be deemed to not have approval under the Building Regulations which may effect your property status in several ways.


Outcome

Further information will be within the documents we send you as part of an Audit. If you are concerned, validate you have a Final Certificate from us, if the project is completed or occupied. If this is the case you can be reassured you will not be part of an Audit or subject to the penalties. If the project is under construction and you have concerns and you wish to request an Audit then use the Contact Form of this website to set up a request. We will respond as mentioned previously other than we are likely to contact you by a site inspection within 30 working days
