We provide comprehensive support through certified Design for Safety Professionals (DfSP) to identify, reduce, and eliminate risks at both the design and construction stages. Our structured design review process ensures that hazards are addressed early, promoting safe construction and long-term operational safety for buildings and infrastructure projects.
By integrating safety into every phase from concept to maintenance, we help clients build safer, more compliant, and more resilient structures.
Our Design for Safety Professional Services
- Design Review & Risk Assessment - Early-stage and detailed design review to identify hazards in civil, structural, and geotechnical works before construction begins, reducing risks throughout the project lifecycle.

Frequently Asked Questions for Safe Construction
What is a Design for Safety Professional?
A Design for Safety Professional (DfSP) who facilitates the Design for Safety (DfS) process. They identify design-related risks, coordinate with designers, and ensure that safety considerations are incorporated from planning to Conceptual, pre-design, construction and maintenance stages.
Why is design review important for safe construction?
Design review helps identify potential hazards early, before construction begins. This reduces accidents, improves constructability, ensures safety compliance, and prevents costly design changes or rework later in the project.
What types of risks are addressed during a safety design review?
Construction, maintenance, operational, structural, environmental, and public safety risks.
Are Design Safety services mandatory for construction projects in Singapore?
Yes. Under the Workplace Safety and Health (Design for Safety) Regulations 2015, DfS duties are mandatory for construction projects with a contract value of S$10 million or more. Smaller projects may also adopt DfS practices for improved safety outcomes.
How does Design Safety Service support benefit project teams?
It enhances coordination, reduces risks, ensures compliance, prevents delays, and improves overall project safety.
