BAFE SP105 Assessment and Registration Process

A step by step process of how to become Third Party Certificated and BAFE Registered to the BAFE SP105 Competency of Organizations for the Service and Maintenance of Dry and Wet Riser/Falling Installations Scheme can be found below.

Please Note

The BAFE SP105 Competency of Organizations for the Service and Maintenance of Dry and Wet Riser/Falling Installations Scheme Document outlines all the requirements for gaining BAFE SP105 Registration (see Downloads). The step by step information below is an outline of the process.

Step 1

Check requirements of the BAFE SP105 Scheme – download and read the BAFE SP105 Scheme Document (see Downloads). Scheme and conformity requirements are listed within the document (Clause 11). For this scheme you do not need ISO9001 certification. However, you are required to have robust quality Management Systems in place. This is explained in the scheme document (Clause 10). An internal review should be performed using this document to see if your organization complies with all the necessary requirements.

Step 2

UKAS Accredited Certification Bodies (licensed by BAFE) deliver the BAFE scheme assessments. Please contact your chosen Certification Body directly to discuss the BAFE SP105 assessment process and costs for this (BAFE SP105 fees are included within the Certification Body assessment costs, you do not pay any fees directly to BAFE for this Scheme).

Certification Body Contact Information for BAFE SP105 Assessment

Your chosen Certification Body will deliver the BAFE SP105 scheme assessment and will also want to see evidence of work undertaken. On satisfactory completion of the assessment the applicant organization will be awarded Third Party Certification to the scope of BAFE SP105.

Step 3

When you have achieved Third Party Certification to the scope of SP105, your chosen Certification Body will inform BAFE directly of this (including information of a Primary Contact and a Lead Technician).

Step 4

Your organization will then be added to the BAFE Fire Safety Register online, which will enable all users searching for Third Party Certificated BAFE Registered Companies for this service to access your information.

BAFE will then send out a welcome pack including your BAFE SP105 Registration Certificate. At this point you will be permitted to display the BAFE SP105 logo and promote your BAFE SP105 Registration where appropriate (please contact BAFE for digital versions of the BAFE SP105 logo for use on web/print/vehicles).
