Fire & building compliance in Australian Capital Territory

Australian Capital Territory regulates essential fire and life-safety measures under the Building Act 2004. New and altered buildings need a Essential Safety Measures Schedule listing every required measure and its performance standard, and building owners must lodge an Annual Safety Measures Statement each year confirming those measures have been inspected and maintained to AS 1851.

The Fire & Building Compliance Suite handles the full Canberra and Australian Capital Territory workflow - from the initial fire-system assessment and Essential Safety Measures Schedule, through construction-phase passive fire tracking, to ongoing essential safety measure management and the Annual Safety Measures Statement.
