DM verifies the new consultant's registration and credentials are current, and that a formal release from the outgoing consultant (or equivalent documentation) confirms a clean handover of responsibility.

Why Consultants Get Changed
Consultant changes typically happen due to service quality concerns, a firm closing or restructuring, disagreements over design decisions, or simply the project owner choosing a firm with more relevant local experience.

Consultant Change — FAQs
How long does a consultant change take with DM?
Typically 2-4 weeks with complete documentation and a cooperative outgoing consultant.
Do I need a release letter from the outgoing consultant?
DM generally requires it or equivalent evidence the consultant relationship has formally ended.
Can construction continue during a consultant change?
Yes, though any design decisions pending consultant sign-off may pause briefly during the transition.
Is this different from a contractor change?
Yes — the consultant handles design and supervision, the contractor handles physical construction; each has its own DM process.
Can Structural Solutions become my new project consultant?
Yes — we are DM-registered and can take on both design review and supervision roles.
