Fire Safety Management Plans
A fire safety management plan brings together all of the elements of your fire safety arrangements into one coherent, authoritative document. It sets out clearly how fire safety is managed in your building — who is responsible for what, how systems are maintained, how staff are trained, and how incidents are reviewed and acted upon.
At Aries Fire Safety, we develop bespoke fire safety management plans that are practical, readable, and genuinely useful. We’ve helped organisations across a wide range of sectors get their fire safety management in order, and we approach every project with the same thoroughness and care.
What is a Fire Safety Management Plan?
A fire safety management plan is a strategic document that describes your overall approach to fire safety management. It sits alongside your fire risk assessment and your fire strategy, and brings them together with your operational procedures, maintenance schedules, and management responsibilities.
Think of it as the master document for fire safety in your building — the one place where everything is recorded, explained, and kept up to date.
What Does a Fire Safety Management Plan Cover?
- Roles and responsibilities — who is the responsible person, who are the fire wardens, who manages maintenance
- Fire risk assessment review schedule
- Maintenance and testing of fire safety systems and equipment
- Staff fire safety training and induction
- Emergency procedures and evacuation arrangements
- Procedures for contractors, visitors, and events
- Incident reporting and post-incident review
- Record-keeping and audit trail
Who Needs a Fire Safety Management Plan?
A fire safety management plan is particularly valuable for larger or more complex buildings, multi-occupied premises, buildings with high footfall or vulnerable occupants, and organisations that are subject to regulatory inspection. It is also increasingly expected by insurers and local fire and rescue services as evidence of a proactive approach to fire safety management.
We also find them especially useful for heritage and historic properties, where the fire safety management arrangements need to reflect the unique characteristics and constraints of the building.
Ongoing Support
Fire safety management doesn’t stop when the plan is written. We can provide ongoing support to help you implement your plan, review it annually, and update it as your building and organisation evolve. Many of our clients value having an experienced fire safety consultant they can call on as questions and situations arise.
Working With Your Team
The best fire safety management plans are ones that your team has been involved in developing. We work collaboratively with you, taking the time to understand how your building is used and managed before we produce the final document. The result is a plan that your team understands, believes in, and will actually follow.
