Training Matrix for Modular Construction
Modular construction needs a training matrix that covers factory roles and site install crews without assuming the same tickets apply in both places. Keep appointments, lifting, height and electrical requirements explicit for the work each person will actually do.
Quick answer
Split or clearly tag factory versus site requirement sets, track named install teams against project gates, and carry evidence packs that show who built and who installs. Do not treat a factory induction as proof of site card currency.
Requirement themes that often differ
| Context | Typical matrix focus |
|---|---|
| Factory / production | Process, plant, COSHH, internal authorisations |
| Load-out and transport | Lifting, banksman, vehicle marshalling where assigned |
| Site install | CSCS/site cards, height, MEWPs, hot works, inductions |
| Management | SMSTS/SSSTS, temporary works where appointed |
Workflow across the journey
- Assign factory role requirements separately from site packages.
- Name the install crew early enough to chase expiries before delivery week.
- Filter site-critical tickets for the install window.
- Export a client pack that states employer and role for each person.
- Update after programme shifts — modular dates move as often as traditional ones.
Evidence pitfalls
Proprietary system training is not always transferable across module types. Record system-specific briefings where your method statements require them, separate from generic height or lifting tickets. Keep temporary-works appointments visible when install sequences create falsework or structural temporary conditions.
Honest limits
FieldClear tracks assigned training requirements only. It does not certify modular systems or decide CDM appointments. Use construction and lifting trackers alongside role pages as operational aids. This guide is not legal advice.
