MAF Associates’ Act One Service
Ensures Fire Safety Act Compliance
Leading fire consultancy, MAF Associates has launched Act One, the UK’s first
integrated service to help ensure compliance with every aspect of the Fire Safety Act
2021 (FSA).

With widespread confusion in the
housing and fire sectors about what the
FSA actually means, especially in
relation to high-rise residential
buildings, the MAF team came up with
Act One, a seamlessly integrated service
that brings together all disciplines
within the MAF Associates team,
covering all aspects of the FSA and other
relevant guidelines.
“We quickly recognised the
uncertainty surrounding the FSA,
especially regarding the requirement for
an external fire risk assessment,” said
Mike Fox, managing director of MAF
Associates. “With Act One, an RP can
come to us and ask us to carry out all
necessary checks and certifications to
ensure full compliance with the new
laws, including signposting any remedial
works that are needed, improvements in
signage, evacuation plans, etc.”
As one of only a handful of UK firms
able to offer the range of services
necessary to ensure full compliance with
the FSA, MAF Associates is well placed to
meet the growing demand for new-style
internal and external fire risk assessments.
Mike added: “With enforcement of
the FSA yet to begin, there is a window
to allow for the necessary enhancements
to be made. With Act One, RPs can
engage MAF Associates to conduct a full
end-to-end inspection and assessment,
ensuring their buildings are fully in line
with the spirit and letter of the new laws.
We will also identify potential issues that
have only become problematic under
the new law.” •
