Fire safety solutions for your project
01
Performance solutions
For buildings that can't meet standard compliance pathways
What it is
When a building can't meet the NCC's deemed-to-satisfy provisions, a performance solution charts an alternative compliance pathway, specific to your building project and its needs, from design through to approvals.
What it does for your project
Unlocks design flexibility without compromising compliance. Keeps projects moving when standard pathways don't fit.
Who it's for
Architects and designers working with complex buildings. Developers where deemed-to-satisfy isn't workable. Project managers needing a clear compliance pathway when the standard route is blocked.
02
Owners’ corporation fire safety
For multi-occupancy buildings with complex obligations
What it is
Specialist fire safety advice for Owners Corporations. From essential safety measures and annual reporting through to defect resolution and cladding assessments.
What it does for your project
Cuts through the complexity of shared building obligations. Gives Owners Corporation managers clear, reliable and actionable advice, and explained to owners without getting lost in technical language.
Who it's for
Owners Corporation managers carrying fire safety compliance responsibility. Body corporates navigating defect claims, cladding issues, or essential safety measure obligations.
03
Building fire safety remediation
For existing buildings not meeting current fire safety requirements
What it is
Existing buildings present different challenges to new developments. Change of use, ageing infrastructure, or heritage constraints all require a practical path to compliance — not a standard solution. Bill has delivered remediation work across Department of Defence facilities, Department of Education buildings, and heritage-listed properties.
What it does for your project
A clear, compliant path forward without unnecessary disruption to the building's use or character.
Who it's for
Building owners and facilities managers dealing with fire safety non-compliance. Government and institutional asset managers. Developers and architects working on change of use projects. Heritage property owners needing solutions that respect the building's integrity.
04
Peer reviews
Independent expert assessment of fire engineering documents
What it is
An independent review of fire engineering documentation prepared by another consultant — assessing whether the approach is sound, the methodology appropriate, and the conclusions defensible.
What it does for your project
Provides confidence that fire engineering is technically correct before it reaches an approval authority. Identifies gaps early.
Who it's for
Developers wanting independent assurance. Building surveyors requiring a peer review as a permit condition. Legal professionals or insurers needing expert assessment of existing fire engineering work.
05
Expert witness
Fire engineering expertise for legal proceedings
What it is
Independent expert witness services for legal matters with a fire engineering dimension — expert reports, expert conclaves, and technical opinion to support or defend claims.
What it does for your project
Gives legal teams access to a fire engineer who understands both the technical and regulatory dimensions of a dispute — and can communicate complex concepts clearly in a legal context.
Who it's for
Law firms and barristers handling building disputes, insurance claims, or liability matters. Insurers requiring independent technical assessment. Building owners involved in litigation where fire compliance is in question.
06
Bushfire planning and preparedness
For development in bushfire-prone areas
What it is
Realistic assessment of fire risk at your property, its compliance against the Bushfire Standard, and measures you can take to reduce your risk.
What it does for your project
Navigates bushfire planning requirements and risk. Particularly valuable in regional Victoria where bushfire overlays are common.
Who it's for
Landowners and developers in bushfire-prone areas. Architects on projects subject to a Bushfire Management Overlay.
