Fire Consultancy
Ignoring the potential of a fire breaking out can be catastrophic for a business. Tetra Tech provides fire consultancy safety engineering and compliance services in the UK and abroad to protect buildings, occupants, and the environment.
Applying bespoke fire consultancy support to each building helps to mitigate risk, protect the building and its inhabitants, while also keeping everything cost-effective. We ensure fire protection measures are intelligently designed, installed, and maintained. We also prepare tender documentation and manage remediation works on behalf of building owners to ensure compliance.
Our fire consultancy specialists are affiliate members of the Institution of Fire Engineers, and members of the Association of Specialist Fire Protection. Many of our fire risk assessors are also registered through third party certification schemes like the Institution of Fire Engineers’ Fire Risk Assessors Register and the Institute of Fire Safety Managers’ Tier 3 Nationally Accredited Fire Risk Assessors Register (NAFRAR).
We have also achieved the highest-standard Gold approval from NSI for the provision of Life Safety Fire Risk Assessments in accordance with BS EN ISO 9001:2015, NSI Quality Schedule FRAQS 123, and BAFE Scheme Document SP 205 Part 1.
