CFR means “consultant for review” in a Dubai Municipality submission. The submitting consultant needs to revise the design, drawings or documents in response to the review comments. The reviewing engineer may also request a meeting with the consultant.
What does CFR mean in Dubai Municipality?
In Gravity’s Dubai Municipality submissions, CFR means “consultant for review”. It tells the submitting consultant to revise something in the submission, whether the design, drawings or documents. Read the review comments to identify what needs changing. The reviewing engineer may request a meeting with the consultant to discuss the submission.
Keep the comments and drawing revisions together
Ask for the full comments from each round, the drawings submitted on those dates and the application reference. Keep these together as one dated record so each revision can be checked against the reviewer’s comments.
Build a response plan
Read the notice
Identify whether the authority requests information, a revision or a different application.
Compare the rounds
Link each comment to its drawing revision and the previous response.
Resolve the underlying issue
Assign technical questions to the relevant designer and seek clarification where needed.
Confirm the next action
Have the authorised applicant confirm the permitted response and timing.
Review any change of consultant
Review the cause of the repeated comments before deciding whether to change consultants. If a change is needed, confirm the appointment or transfer requirements and arrange a complete handover of drawings, submissions and correspondence.
