Building Passport | Creating a safer built environment

A Building Passport is a securely stored, online & up-to-date record of the physical attributes of a building through its lifecycle.

WHAT IS A BUILDING PASSPORT?

We think every building should have its plans available to emergency services.

WHY SHOULD EVERY BUILDING HAVE ONE?

Imminent changes to legislation are putting a focus on the digital collection and storage of important building information. Building Passport helps you manage:

GOLDEN THREAD

Store a historical record of important information on your building to align with the suggestions emanating from Dame Judith Hackitt's Grenfell report

REGULATION 38

Regulation 38 of the Building Regulations 2010 stipulates the requirement to provide Responsible Person(s) with fire safety information at project completion

BS8644 : 2021

Incoming Code of Practice giving guidance on the digital management of fire safety information for design, construction, handover and emergency response

THE SAFETY BILLS

The Building Safety Bill and Fire Safety Bill will bring about legislative changes requiring evidenced dutyholders for each 'gateway' of a building's lifecycle and clear identification of, and fire risk management by, the Accountable Person(s).

BUILDING SAFETY REGULATOR

Enforcing new stringent regulation to make gathering, storing and sharing information obligatory

Securely store the EWS1 form for your building in your Building Passport to allow residents access to it for the purpose of sale, remortgage or insurance.
