Define the areas to be checked
Describe the premises and who uses them, including communal areas and any shared responsibilities. The assessment needs a clear boundary.
Prepare the information
The assessment considers relevant fire hazards and existing precautions. Provide previous records, changes of use and known concerns.
Review the findings and scope
The responsible person must act on findings and keep arrangements under review. Commissioning a report does not transfer all ongoing fire safety duties.
Keep the right records
Installation, remedial work, intrusive investigation and specialist design are separate unless expressly included. The quotation should identify the agreed assessment type.
