5.1.5.2
PC appoints a managing sub-contractor
The PC should check that the contracting organization has the ability and processes in place to
manage temporary works; only then should the organization be contracted to manage the temporary
works under their specific control [see Figure 3a)]. In particular, the PC9s DI should confirm that the
sub-contractor9s procedure for the control of temporary works is satisfactory.
The contractor/sub-contractor should appoint a TWC to control their own temporary works. In effect,
the PC has delegated certain duties to the TWC with ultimate control for temporary works remaining
with the PC9s TWC.
