According to the Permanent Secretary, Ministry of Physical Planning and Urban Development, Engr. Oluwole Sotire, the portal can be accessed through the CAP website: www.capmppudlasg.net
He stated that the portal has been programmed to accept applications as Certified Accreditors from teams of professionals as against individuals, while the following WhatsApp number and email address have been provided for further inquiries: [email protected] or +2348024626092 (WhatsApp messages only)
Engr. Sotire explained that the CAP website is interactive and has other features such as the Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) to ease the task of any prospective applicants.
Recall that the Lagos State Government recently introduced the Certified Accreditor Programme (CAP) and the Certificate of Structural Integrity Programme (CSIP) to bolster regulation of the built sector and enhance efficiency, targeting the elimination of delays in Planning Permit Approvals, enhanced compliance monitoring and subsequent eradication of building collapse.
The programme is now at the critical stage of enrolling tested and trusted private sector professionals to team up with the government as Certified Accreditors in the bid to sanitise the system.
