Tio Fire Safety-HAES partnership set to “transform fire safety compliance”

29 January 2024

TIO FIRE Safety (developer of the award-winning, all-in-one compliance app for fire safety) has unveiled the details of a “transformative collaboration” with HAES – one of the UK’s leading manufacturers of addressable, conventional and marine fire alarm control panels. The partnership “heralds a new era” in the fire safety sector, packaging Tio’s app with every HAES fire alarm panel to provide a “comprehensive” safety and compliance solution.

In essence, Tio Fire Safety is introducing a “seamless packaging” of its BS 5839-compliant digital logbook, digital asset register and digital visitor book with every HAES fire alarm panel.

HAES customers can now schedule, document and track weekly fire alarm tests with automatically generated Call Point rotas, staff reminders and audit histories. With Tio’s digital tools, not only will those customers be able to manage their own responsibilities, but they can also manage their contractors’ maintenance visits with the same accuracy and transparency. Contractors can upload maintenance certificates, zone charts, as-fitted drawings and more direct to their customers’ accounts for anytime, anywhere access.

HAES recognises the need for digital innovation in the fire safety sector. The new collaboration with Tio Fire Safety goes beyond merely replacing paper logbooks. Rather, it revolutionises the way in which compliance is managed. Ultimately, this all-in-one solution simplifies, streamlines and enhances the entire compliance process.

Empowering customers, ensuring compliance

Mick Seamarks MBE from the Dean Close Foundation attests to the impact of Tio Fire Safety’s app on fire audits. He observed: “We had a fire audit last week and the local Fire and Rescue Service was hugely impressed by the Tio solution.”

Tio Fire Safety emphasises security and compliance by ensuring that all dedicated servers are UK-based. No data is held outside of the UK. Tio also adheres to the General Data Protection Regulation, providing end users with confidence in the secure management of their compliance data.

Established in 1973 as a family-run business, HAES takes pride in being at the forefront of sustainability in the fire safety industry. All HAES products are proudly manufactured in the UK. The move towards a paperless operation through the adoption of digital logbooks aligns with the company’s commitment to reduce its environmental impact and support the local economy.

Tio Fire Safety’s all-in-one compliance management solution is at the heart of this new partnership, with an additional focus on sustainability and long-term success for customers.

The commitment to simplifying compliance is evident in the array of available features, which are as follows:

*BS 5839-compliant digital logbook (for fire safety compliance management)

*Digital asset register (for maintaining a comprehensive digital record of assets, ensuring easy access and management)

*Digital visitor book (streamlines visitor management processes thanks to a user-friendly digital solution)

*Cloud storage (safeguards important documents through secure, UK-based cloud storage)

*Personalised checklist (end users can receive guidance on duties through a personalised checklist, ensuring that due diligence is proven)

Pre-configured topics

Tio Fire Safety’s solution covers fire safety, security, electrical safety, gas safety, water safety and custom tasks. Each topic is aligned with the British Standards Institution guidance on the required visual inspections, drills and checks required for compliance.

The app is smart enough to assign responsibilities to both building occupiers and maintenance contractors, in turn saving HAES’ customers time and money when organising the maintenance of their new fire safety systems.

By combining HAES’ fire alarm expertise with Tio Fire Safety’s compliance management, this partnership not only addresses current industry needs, but also anticipates future requirements.
