Principal J7 service
Fire Safety Consultancy
Clearly scoped professional support for compliance questions, action plans, property decisions and premises-specific concerns.
Controlled J7 instruction
Scope, evidence and deliverable are confirmed before work proceeds
The service is shaped around the premises and client responsibility rather than a pre-written package.
Information required
The defined question, premises, relevant correspondence or documents, parties involved, decision required and deadline.
What is confirmed
The premises, areas, service, attendance, fee, VAT, timescale, exclusions and payment or approved account terms are recorded in the quotation.
Expected output
The agreed advice, review, meeting record or action plan, with limitations and any need for separate specialist input stated.
Practical professional input
Advice focused on the decision in front of you
Consultancy can be scoped around a specific premises, transaction, enforcement concern, action plan or management question.
Compliance review
Clarify duties, evidence and proportionate next steps where the position is uncertain.
Action-plan support
Help interpret findings, prioritise work and distinguish management actions from specialist design.
Property and project support
Review available information and define the fire-safety input needed before decisions are made.
Defined before work starts
A clear question, evidence base and deliverable
The quotation identifies what is being reviewed, the information required and the form of advice to be provided. This prevents a broad consultancy instruction from implying specialist design or certification that is outside the agreed scope.
- Premises, issue and decision requiring support
- Documents, photographs or previous findings available
- Relevant client, landlord, tenant or project responsibilities
- Required output, timescale and known limitations
Connected support
Use consultancy alongside the relevant core service
Assessment findings, written arrangements and ongoing management should reinforce one another.
Common questions
Clear scope before instruction
These answers explain the usual service boundary. The accepted quotation confirms the exact scope for the premises and client.
What can a consultancy instruction cover?
A defined compliance question, action-plan review, premises concern, property decision, document review or coordination issue can be scoped. The required evidence and deliverable are agreed before work starts.
Does consultancy include engineering design?
Not unless specialist engineering work is expressly identified, separately scoped and delivered by an appropriately competent professional. General consultancy does not imply calculations, modelling or design certification.
Can J7 review another consultant or contractor quotation?
J7 can review the stated scope and available premises evidence where agreed, while remaining clear about limitations and any matter requiring the original designer, installer or another specialist.
