Life Safety Evaluations
Added Value ...
BSS Guardian™ and Archangel equip commercial and corporate property owners and facilities managers with even more efficient and effective ways to administer emergency response programs.
After gaining an accurate and detailed understanding of property safety systems and features, building occupancy, and emergency procedures, BSS life safety experts will prepare a well-constructed and organized assessment of life safety features specific to your site.
The objective of these evaluations is to provide building management and ownership or corporations operating within such buildings with a constructive critique that scrutinizes the safety environment for the occupants. The end result of BSS Life Safety Evaluations is to minimize risk and potentially improve how building systems and occupants respond to an emergency.
The following are the primary areas of consideration that BSS addresses in our life safety evaluations:
- Life Safety and Fire Protection Evaluation/Status
- General Safety Evaluation/Status
- Security Evaluation/Status
