RICS Forms of Consultant's Appointment (Northern Ireland)
Published May 2022
RICS has published a new edition of the RICS Forms of Consultant’s Appointment.
RICS members and others involved in the appointment of surveyors are encouraged to use these Forms for a wide variety of different disciplines within the construction process and related fields.
The Appointment Forms are published in three separate versions: Standard, Short and Short Designated, with explanatory notes provided on how the Forms and Scope documents are to be used.
Versions for England and Wales and Scotland have also been published.
Minor revisions were made in April 2025 to make clear that the Principal Designer Scope of Services only relates to appointments made under the CDM Regulations (NI) 2016, given that the provisions of the Building Safety Act 2022 do not apply in Northern Ireland.
