BAFE SP205 Life Safety Fire Risk Assessment Certification

We are proud to announce that Safe I.S. Ltd has been officially awarded the BAFE SP205 Life Safety Fire Risk Assessment certification — a prestigious recognition of our continued commitment to excellence in fire safety and risk management.

This achievement marks our fourth BAFE certification, reinforcing our position as a comprehensive and trusted provider of fire protection services. We now hold the following BAFE certifications:

  • BAFE SP203-4 For the maintenance of emergency lighting systems
  • BAFE SP203-1 for the design, installation, commissioning and maintenance of fire detection and alarm systems.
  • BAFE SP101 for the service / maintenance of portable fire extinguishers.
  • BAFE SP205 Life Safety Fire Risk Assessment

Together, these certifications reflect our dedication to delivering fully compliant, industry-recognised fire safety solutions across all key areas of protection and prevention.

What is BAFE SP205?

The BAFE SP205 scheme is the industry benchmark for companies undertaking fire risk assessments. It is a third-party certification developed by BAFE (British Approvals for Fire Equipment) to ensure that organisations are fully competent to carry out life safety fire risk assessments, in line with the requirements of the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 and current best practices.

Being BAFE SP205 certified demonstrates that a company:

  • Employs competent and qualified fire risk assessors.

  • Has robust management systems in place.

  • Follows industry-recognised methodologies for assessing fire risks.

  • Is subject to regular audits and assessments by independent certification bodies.

  • That our fire risk assessment documentation is presented in a format that is clear and readily understandable to anyone who reads it. It records every significant detail that was found, an assessment of the nature and severity of risk, and the actions recommended for removing or mitigating that risk.

  • That we are competent to deliver quality fire risk assessment services.
