8.7 Example of a tender for health and safety protection

8.7.1 General
The tender text for health and safety is part of the additional technical conditions (ZTV)
in the tender.
The coordinator undertakes the rights and duties of the client according to the German
construction site regulations of 10 June 1998.

Coordinators have to ensure that their collaboration leads to safe construction and com-
pletion of this challenging construction project. They contribute to the organisational and
safety-related questions related to site facilities, demolition works, support measures, dan-
ger-relevant construction processes, fire protection measures and site security.
The German construction site regulations and the agreements between the coordinator and
the client result in the following services to be provided by the contractor:
The contractor undertakes to provide the appointed coordinator with all documents that
are necessary in this matter or present them for approval/preparation.
For the production of health and safety plans, the planned schedule is to be provided to the
coordinator separately for each construction section.

Contractors have to name their safety officers in writing before the start of construction to act
as contact partners for the coordinator. The safety officer is given the task by the contractor
of immediately remedying defects. This applies to their own company and to sub-contractors
and suppliers.
