This framework gives customers compliant access to a comprehensive list of highly qualified and experienced fire consultancy firms.
The scope of works across 7 Lots includes: FRA’s, Compartmentation surveys, specialist advice and on-site quality of work inspections.
Each Lot has been sub-divided by geographical location to give this framework national coverage.
These FRAs will be carried out by individuals who are UKAS accredited ‘Competent Persons’, and who work for a company with a company based ‘Competent Person’ scheme.
FRA’s will include all areas of the internal and external routes, and may include common areas, riser ducts, common loft spaces and ventilation shafts. This will also take into account fire alarm detection systems, emergency lighting, fire-fighting equipment and signage of the properties in question.
These FRAs will be carried out by individuals who can demonstrate that they are competent through sufficient training, experience, and knowledge, to enable them to properly assist in undertaking the preventative and protective measures.

These surveys will be carried out by individuals who can demonstrate that they are competent through sufficient training, experience and knowledge to enable them to properly assist in undertaking the preventative and protective measures.
Surveys will involve a detailed intrusive inspection (separate to FRA) on the varying fire compartmentation elements of buildings; and preparation of a report that will address the specific fire compartmentation issues, including deficiencies, and the requirements to rectify in priority order and estimated costs.

Oversees the quality and safety of work on site, making sure that the specifications are being followed correctly. Sufficient inspections are to be undertaken to ensure the work can be certified that it compiles with fire safety standards specified by the client.
This Lot covers all work through one consultant who is UKAS accredited. This is ideal for customers who wish to have all aspects covered by one firm to simplify who they talk to over fire safety, and to gain more consistency in their approach to fire safety from inception to completion.
This Lot covers all work through one consultant, but using people who are assessed as competent through means other than the UKAS route. This is ideal for customers who wish to have all aspects covered by one firm to simplify who they talk to over fire safety work, and to gain more consistency in their approach to fire safety from inception to completion – but customers must also be content to assess competence on a case by case basis.
