Emergency Planning & Procedures
When the alarm sounds, hesitation is a liability. We replace ambiguity with a rigid tactical framework, ensuring your staff react to a crisis with reflex and competence rather than panic.
Our Scope:
-
Multi-Hazard Protocols: Extending beyond fire to cover gas leaks, bomb threats, and civil disturbance.
-
Command Structure: Defining specific, actionable duties for Incident Controllers and Marshals.
-
Evacuation Logistics: Establishing clear muster points, communication channels, and PEEPs (Personal Emergency Evacuation Plans).
The Output: A definitive "Crisis Playbook" ensuring the safety of personnel and the protection of assets during a critical incident.
Evacuation Planning and Fire Drills
A theoretical plan is worthless if it fails in practice. We transition your evacuation strategy from a document to a physical drill, stress-testing your procedures to ensure staff exit the building efficiently and without panic.
Our Scope:
-
Strategy Design: Optimising escape routes and defining clear Assembly Points away from hazard zones.
-
Live Facilitation: We oversee the drill, timing the evacuation and identifying physical bottlenecks or behavioural failures.
-
Inclusivity: Integrating PEEPs (Personal Emergency Evacuation Plans) for mobility-impaired occupants.
-
Performance Review: A formal debrief identifying specific improvements required for the next quarter.
The Output: A formal "Drill Report" for your Fire Logbook, providing the necessary evidence that your mandatory testing obligations have been met.
Fire Safety Training
Legally, an untrained employee is a liability. The Fire Safety Order requires that all staff receive "adequate safety training." We provide the structured curriculum necessary to convert your workforce from passive occupants into active safety assets.
Our Scope:
-
General Awareness: Instruction on the Fire Triangle, hazard identification, and basic evacuation protocol (Mandatory for all staff).
-
Warden Instruction: Advanced tactical training for designated marshals, covering sweeping duties and roll calls.
-
Equipment Usage: Theoretical and practical instruction on the selection and deployment of fire extinguishers (CO2, Foam, Water).
The Output:
Verifiable staff competence, evidenced by individual certification for your compliance records.
Personal Emergency Evacuation Plans (PEEPs) Development
Standard evacuation procedures assume full mobility. For staff or residents with impairments, this assumption is dangerous and illegal. We formulate the bespoke strategy required to ensure everyone escapes, satisfying both the Fire Safety Order and the Equality Act 2010.
Our Scope:
-
Capability Assessment: Evaluating the individual's specific mobility limitations against the building's physical constraints (stairs, corridors, heavy doors).
-
Tactical Planning: Defining specific egress methods—such as the deployment of Evacuation Chairs or Safe Refuge procedures—rather than relying on "await rescue" protocols.
-
Support Designation: Identifying and instructing specific "Evacuation Buddies" to assist the individual during an alarm.
The Output: A formal, signed PEEP document ensuring the safety of vulnerable occupants and protecting the organization from negligence claims.
Fire Safety Equipment:
The Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 mandates the provision of "appropriate fire-fighting equipment." Guesswork here is dangerous. We provide a full procurement and installation service, ensuring you have the correct extinguisher ratings and signage for your specific risk profile.
Our Scope:
-
Specification: Matching the suppression medium (Foam, CO2, Water) to the specific hazard (Electrical, Class A, Class B).
-
Siting & Signage: Positioning equipment and photoluminescent signage in strict accordance with BS 5306 and BS 5499 (Travel Distances and Visibility).
-
Commissioning: On-site verification and tagging of equipment to prove it is fit for service.
The Output:
Fully compliant, commissioned hardware that is legally documented and ready for immediate deployment.
Consultancy Packages
Fragmented compliance—using one vendor for training and another for assessments—creates administrative friction and gaps in your audit trail. We have streamlined the process into three defined service tiers (Foundation, Professional, Ultimate), ensuring you secure the exact level of coverage your specific risk profile demands.
The Scope:
Our tiered portfolios consolidate the essential pillars of the Fire Safety Order into a single instruction:
-
Assessment: PAS 79 Fire Risk Assessment.
-
Documentation: Fire Safety Policy & Evacuation Strategy creation.
-
Physical Integrity: Fire Door Surveys (FD30/FD60 verification).
-
Competence: Staff Training quotas included as standard.
The Output: A single annual invoice. A single point of contact. Total statutory coverage without the administrative burden.
