RRO 2005 · Article 17

Your clients carry personal legal liability. Most of them are flying blind.

Under the Fire Safety Order 2005 and the Building Safety Act 2022, the responsible person at every site you maintain is personally accountable for fire safety compliance. What do they usually get from their contractor? A certificate filed away after each visit, and no way to check where they actually stand in between.

Today · without FireCompliance Pro

Compliant on paper, invisible in between

Certificates buried in email threads. Defects mentioned verbally on site. No record of what's outstanding, what's overdue, or what a fire officer would find tomorrow morning.

With FireCompliance Pro

A live portal with their compliance position

Every certificate, every defect, every visit is visible the moment your engineer completes the job. A plain-English summary tells them exactly where they stand and what needs doing.

RRO 2005
Art. 17

Maintenance duty

Fire safety systems must be maintained in efficient working order, and the responsible person must be able to demonstrate it.

BSA
2022

Sharpened accountability

The Building Safety Act raised the stakes: unlimited fines and custodial sentences for responsible persons who can't evidence compliance.

BS 5839-1
CL. 43

Inspection & servicing

Periodic maintenance to a defined schedule, with documented results. Visit forms are built directly on Clause 43 and Annexes E & F.

BAFE
SP203-1

Scheme compliance

NCR registers, calibrated test equipment, competency records, sub-contractor control, with scheme evidence kept audit-ready year round.

One platform · Two portals

You run the operation. Your clients watch it happen.

Two portals share one live data layer. When your engineer closes a job, the certificate lands in the client's portal seconds later, with nothing for either side to file or chase.

Contractor portal

Your entire operation, one dashboard

Everything your office and your BAFE assessor need, in one place.

Jobs & scheduling. Create jobs, assign them to engineers and track each one through to completion.
Defect register. Cat 1/2/3 categorisation with age tracking and a client notification workflow built in.
Certificate library. Every G2–G7 and BAFE certificate, generated and filed the moment the job's signed off.
BAFE evidence. NCRs, calibration records, competencies and sub-contractors, kept together for your assessment.
Clients, sites & systems. The full estate hierarchy, with a false alarm log per system.

Role: Responsible person · No charge to your client

The centrepiece · AI estate health

Their compliance position, explained in plain English.

The moment a responsible person opens their portal, the platform reads every site, defect, certificate and pending work order in their live estate, then writes a fresh briefing of exactly where they stand, citing the legislation that applies to them. No dashboards to decode. No jargon to translate.

Always live, never stale

Generated from the estate's data at that moment. An engineer closes a defect at 2pm and the summary knows by 2:01.

Cites the law that applies

References RRO 2005 and BS 5839-1:2025 where they're legally relevant, so the person carrying the liability understands why it matters, not just what's red.

Refresh on demand

One tap regenerates the briefing, handy right before a board meeting or a fire officer's visit.

Across your three sites, your estate is largely compliant: Harbour View Hotel and Marina Court both hold in-date G6 Inspection & Servicing certificates. Quarterly maintenance is on schedule under BS 5839-1:2025 Clause 43.

One item needs your urgent attention. A Category 1 defect was logged at Pier House this morning: a sounder circuit fault affecting audibility on the second floor. Under Article 17 of the Fire Safety Order 2005, your duty to maintain the system in efficient working order means this should be rectified without delay. Work order WO-0142 is waiting for your approval below.

Marina Court carries two Category 2 defects from last month's visit. Neither is urgent, and both are quoted within the same work order, so approving it clears your whole outstanding list in one decision.

The form changes with the job. The certificate writes itself.

Engineers see only their assigned jobs, on their phone, on site. Pick the visit type when you create the job and the form adapts: maintenance visits follow BS 5839-1 Clause 43 and Annexes E & F, commissioning follows the commissioning schedule, surveys stay light. Photos attach to defects as they're logged. Completing the job triggers the right certificate automatically. Install it to the home screen like a native app, and it keeps working when the signal drops in a basement plant room — job data and photos queue and sync the moment you're back online.

One platform · Every discipline

Fire alarms first. Not fire alarms only.

Most of your sites don't stop at the fire alarm panel, and neither does your compliance duty. FireCompliance Pro treats each discipline as a first-class system on the site: its own service schedule, its own visit forms, its own certificates, one client portal over all of it.

BS 5839-1:2025

Fire detection & alarm

Full Annex G certificate set, Clause 43 visit forms, false alarm register. BAFE SP203-1 certificates for registered contractors.

BS 5266-1:2025

Emergency lighting

Annual duration tests, completion & periodic inspection certificates, per-luminaire test records.

BS 8629

Evacuation alert systems

6-monthly & 12-monthly servicing, install-to-acceptance certificates, BAFE SP207. For buildings over 18 m.

BS 5839-6

Domestic fire detection

Grades and categories for residential and HMO scope.

BS 5839-9

Emergency voice comms

Fire telephones and disabled refuge systems, with their 6-monthly service regime.

BS 5839-1 · BS 5839-6 · BS 5839-9 · BS 5266-1 · BS 8629 · BAFE

Every certificate. Every stage. Generated, filed, delivered.

From installation to handover and every service visit after, the correct certificate for the discipline is generated as a PDF the moment the work completes, filed in your library and instantly visible in your client's portal.

Your branding, not ours

Your logo and BAFE badge on every page

Upload your company logo once and it appears in the header of every certificate you issue, background removed automatically so it sits clean with no white box around it. BAFE-registered? Your own registration badge, with your number on it, renders in the footer too.

Tamper-evident

Hashed, timestamped, publicly verifiable

Every certificate carries a content hash and a QR code linking to a public verification page, so anyone can confirm it's genuine and untouched without logging in.

BAFE registered? Verify your registration once and the BAFE certificate types unlock across your account: SP203-1 for fire detection & alarm, SP207 for evacuation alert, DS301 for domestic fire detection (Grade D). Each is selectable per job, since not every job is BAFE scope. Not registered? Every plan still includes the full British Standard certificate sets under the FireCompliance Pro certificate.
