Digital Fire: Powering Compliance, Fuelling Innovation
BS 8644‑1:2022 marks a pivotal shift in how the UK manages fire safety information—establishing a robust, digital “golden thread” that follows a building from design, installation, asset in use and end of life. Born from the lessons of the Grenfell Tower inquiry, this standard is designed to ensure that duty‑holders, building owners, and emergency services have instant access to accurate and trusted fire safety data when it matters most.
In this session, Tom Ford from Honeywell Fire’s specification team will explore how embracing digital technologies is no longer optional but essential. He will discuss how digital transformation strengthens compliance, elevates industry practice, and drives meaningful innovation across the fire safety landscape.
