Established in 1984, BAFE is a non-profit making organization dedicated to improving standards in fire protection. It is supported, amongst others, by government, trading standards and the Heath and Safety Executive. In today's environment of risk assessment, with the increasing responsibility for safety on the owner / occupier, it is increasingly important that the quality of fire protection ensures "fit for purpose" and is installed and maintained by "competent persons". In buying your fire protection from a BAFE Registered Firm you are assured of this.

The National Security Inspectorate is the leading approvals and certification body that inspects companies providing home security, business security and fire protection services.
Choosing an NSI approved company ensures that the contractor you select works to the highest recognised industry standards as demanded by the Police, Fire & Rescue Services and insurance industry. NSI is a Security Industry Authority (SIA) Assessing Body for the Approved Contractor Scheme (ACS).

Over the years local authority health and safety and procurement professionals, with the support of the Health and Safety Executive, have developed the Contractor Health and Safety assessment scheme (CHAS). The scheme is available for use by any public and private sector organizations to use when shortlisting contractors, suppliers and consultants (companies) who apply to work for them. It provides information about the health and safety part of their application.

Constructionline is the UK's register of pre-qualified local and national construction and construction-related suppliers.
The concept of a single national database was proposed by the 1994 Latham Report. Since then Constructionline has grown and been updated in line with the needs of modern procurement. The OGC Common Minimum Standards and The Local Government Task Force also recommend using Constructionline as part of the pre-qualification and tendering process.
