How the audit works

  1. Preliminary review

    We review information about the site, its purpose, characteristics and available documentation.

  2. Site inspection

    A specialist inspects the grounds, buildings and premises and assesses their actual fire and technological safety conditions.

  3. Risk identification

    We record shortcomings and potential hazards that could cause a fire, hinder evacuation or complicate emergency rescue operations.

  4. Audit act and recommendations

    Following the audit, the client receives a structured list of identified shortcomings and practical recommendations to address them.

What the client receives

The main document is a formal audit act in the prescribed form. Additional materials may include explanations, photographs, identified deficiencies and practical recommendations for correcting them and reducing risks.

Who this service is for

An audit is useful for office and shopping centres, hotels and accommodation facilities, restaurants, warehouses, industrial premises, educational institutions, healthcare facilities, residential complexes, homeowners' associations, businesses and other sites.

An audit is particularly useful before opening a new site, after reconstruction or a change of use, before signing a lease, or as an internal review of a company's safety arrangements.

A professional, practical approach

Audits are conducted by specialists with practical experience in fire safety, civil protection and emergency response.

We assess not only documentation, but also how evacuation, fire development and fire and rescue operations would actually unfold in an emergency.
