Trusted BWoF Expertise
A building warrant of fitness (BWoF) is a building owner’s annual statement confirming the
specified systems in the compliance schedule for their building have been maintained and
checked for the previous 12 months, in accordance with the compliance schedule.

Independent Qualified Person
An Independent Qualified Person (IQP) plays a crucial role in ensuring the safety and compliance of commercial buildings. IQPs are professionals certified by regulatory authorities, such as Councils, to inspect, maintain, and report on specified systems within the building. These systems typically include fire protection, emergency lighting, and other essential safety features.
IQPs conduct regular inspections and tests to verify that a building’s specified systems are functioning correctly and meet regulatory standards. They also provide maintenance recommendations and reports to building owners and authorities.
By engaging an IQP, building owners can demonstrate their commitment to safety and compliance, ensuring the protection of occupants and compliance with relevant regulations. This proactive approach helps prevent potential risks and ensures that buildings remain safe and operational. Most importantly, if maintained correctly, ensures that the life safety systems will work in the event of an emergency.
