Why Contractor Change Affects Setting Out

When a new contractor takes over an in-progress project, DM and the new contractor typically want the setting out plan re-verified against actual site conditions before construction resumes — confirming nothing has shifted or deviated.

How Our Approval Process Works

Our expert engineers handle the entire NOC process, ensuring faster approvals and full compliance with Dubai regulations.

Combining Both Processes Efficiently

Handling the setting out re-verification alongside your contractor change application — rather than as a separate later step — avoids delays once your new contractor is ready to resume works.

Setting Out & Contractor Change — FAQs

Do I always need a new setting out plan after a contractor change?

Not always — if the site position hasn't changed, a re-verification confirming this may be sufficient rather than a full revision.

Can this be combined with the contractor change application?

Yes — handling both together is typically more efficient than sequencing them separately.

Who conducts the re-verification survey?

Typically an independent surveyor or structural consultant, confirming current site position against the approved plan.

What if a deviation is found?

This gets documented and, if significant, a revised setting out plan is submitted to DM for approval.

Can Structural Solutions handle this alongside our contractor change?

Yes — we coordinate both processes together as part of your contractor change application.
