This is a session fire safety providers cannot afford to miss.

Be among the first to hear the findings of independent research commissioned by NSI and BAFE into how Responsible Persons and Duty Holders are changing the way they buy fire safety services.

Based on insights from decision-makers across the UK, the study reveals a market undergoing significant change. Expectations are rising, scrutiny is increasing and buyers are becoming far more focused on how competence is demonstrated.

The research uncovers surprising findings about:

  • · The hidden gap between what buyers say they value and what they actually check
  • · The growing importance of independent certification as a signal of trust
  • · How changing expectations could reshape the competitive landscape for fire safety providers

Bonus: Pick up a limited printed copy of the report at the talk or from the NSI stand in The Fire Safety Event (4/H100).
