## What Makes Shore Construction Different

- Hybrid delivery model — construction management transparency with principal contractor accountability, not a choice between the two.

- Building Safety Act specialists — active delivery of higher-risk buildings through Gateway 2 and Gateway 3, with in-house Golden Thread and mandatory occurrence reporting protocols

- Sector focused — deep experience across PBSA, BTR, independent living and residential; not a generalist contractor

Developer capability — Shore operates as developer on occupational living and new build residential schemes, combining site identification, design coordination and in-house construction delivery

Project recovery — experienced in taking over distressed or mid-build schemes, stabilising programme and commercial position, and delivering to practical completion

## Who Shore Construction Is For

- Developers and investors in PBSA, BTR, independent living and residential sectors

- Housing associations and local authorities procuring residential or care schemes

- Clients requiring a principal contractor on higher-risk buildings subject to the Building Safety Act 2022

- Development partners seeking a contractor who can also act as developer on occupational living or new build residential schemes

- Clients with a distressed or stalled project requiring recovery and completion

Not a fit for: infrastructure, civil engineering or commercial office schemes; projects below £5m in value; clients seeking a conventional fixed-price lump sum contractor without transparency on cost and procurement.

## Services

### Construction Management

Shore Construction's hybrid construction management model delivers open-book cost transparency, rigorous programme control and hands-on site delivery. Trade packages are procured competitively on the client's behalf; Shore's fee is fixed. The model eliminates the contingency-laden lump sum and removes the adversarial variation dynamic of fixed-price contracting.

## Building Safety Act

Shore Construction fulfils its principal contractor dutyholder obligations under the Building Safety Act 2022 on both higher-risk buildings and all other applicable projects. This covers Gateway 2 and Gateway 3 management, Golden Thread maintenance through the construction phase, mandatory occurrence reporting, and supply chain competence assessment. BSA compliance is embedded in Shore's delivery process, not treated as a separate compliance exercise.
