New building regulations: why construction logistics is crucial for developers and site managers
From July 1, 2025, Boverket's new building regulations apply. The regulations represent a major shift for the entire construction industry – from detailed requirements to function-based building rules with greater responsibility for developers and project organizations.
In the new regulatory reality, construction logistics becomes a crucial factor for:
- meeting functional requirements
- ensuring work environment and safety
- being able to verify and document how the project was carried out
This is where Projsite plays a central role.
What do Boverket's new building regulations mean in practice?
Previously, building regulations often specified exactly how something should be built. The new building regulations focus instead on what should be achieved.
This means:
- greater flexibility in solutions
- more responsibility for the developer
- increased requirements for planning, documentation, and verification
Developers, site managers, and contractors must now be able to demonstrate how the work has been organized and carried out – not just the end result.
Construction logistics – the link between building regulations and reality
With functional requirements, implementation becomes crucial. Construction logistics directly affects several areas covered by the regulations:
- work environment and safety
- fire protection and accessibility
- risk management
- order and organization at the construction site
How deliveries are planned, how spaces are used, and how stakeholders are coordinated is now part of regulatory compliance.
How Projsite helps developers comply with the new building regulations
In a freer regulatory framework, better structure is needed – not more administration.
Structure without limiting flexibility
With Projsite, developers can:
- plan and manage construction logistics digitally
- create clear working methods for the entire project
- maintain flexibility while increasing control
This makes it easier to assume the increased responsibility that Boverket's new building regulations entail.
Support for site managers in daily work at the construction site
For site managers, the new building regulations mean greater responsibility in daily work. It is at the construction site that functional requirements are translated into reality.
Projsite helps site managers to:
- gain control over deliveries and transports
- reduce improvisation and late changes
- create better order, safety, and work environment
When construction logistics works, it becomes easier to comply with both building regulations and work environment requirements.
Construction logistics as a basis for documentation and verification
The new building regulations place increased demands on projects to demonstrate:
- how the work was planned
- how risks were managed
- how functional requirements were met
Projsite creates:
- traceability in planning and implementation
- history that can be used for follow-up and review
- better learning for future construction projects
This is particularly important during the transition period until July 1, 2026, when the industry is building new practices.
Dialogue and coordination – a prerequisite in new building regulations
A recurring message regarding Boverket's new building regulations is the need for dialogue:
- between developer and contractors
- between site organization and suppliers
- between project and municipality
Projsite brings together planning, construction logistics, and communication in a shared digital platform – reducing misunderstandings and making the project less dependent on individuals.
Summary: construction logistics is the key in new building regulations
Boverket's new building regulations are not just about new paragraphs – they require new ways of working.
Through structured construction logistics, developers and site managers can:
- take responsibility according to new regulations
- create order and safety
- meet functional requirements in practice
Projsite helps construction projects go from regulations to functioning everyday life.
