Fire Risk Assessment
Suitable & sufficient assessments compliant with the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005.
Overview
Service overview & scope
A suitable and sufficient Fire Risk Assessment is the legal foundation of fire safety in any non-domestic premises in the UK. Our Level 4 assessors deliver clear, defensible reports mapped directly to the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 and the Fire Safety Act 2021 — covering occupancy, building fabric, escape, detection, suppression and management arrangements.
What's included
Scope of work
- Type 1 to Type 4 assessments depending on building risk profile
- Full review of building plans, occupancy, and management arrangements
- Inspection of escape routes, signage, detection and suppression
- Review of fire doors, compartmentation and passive fire protection
- Photographic evidence captured throughout
- Action plan with priority risk ratings (PAS 79)
- Annual review reminders
Why it matters
What this means for FMs & Responsible Persons
Legal obligation
Every non-domestic premises must have a current Fire Risk Assessment under Article 9 of the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005. Where five or more people are employed, the significant findings must be recorded in writing.
Insurance & enforcement
An evidence-based FRA is the first thing insurers and enforcing authorities request when something goes wrong.
Operational continuity
A good FRA prevents downtime by identifying issues before they become enforcement notices or insurance claims.
