This British Standard specifies requirements for a fire risk management system (FRM system) that can be applied in: organizations that operate on multiple sites; separate management divisions within an organization; or individual premises within a single organization. This British Standard can accommodate diverse geographical, cultural and social conditions. It is applicable to any organization, regardless of its type or size, or the products and services it provides. This British Standard provides a framework for an enhanced management system level (Management System Level 1) as described in BS9999:2017, to provide a measurable assessment of the factors that can be fed into the risk profile for a specific building to allow design freedoms that might otherwise be unobtainable. This British Standard is intended to be used by any organization that wishes to: establish a formal FRM system to minimize risks to life, property, business continuity and the environment from the threat of fire which arises as a result of its activities; implement, maintain and continually improve an FRM system; and assure itself of its conformity with its stated fire policy and strategy. NOTE Guidance on the use of this document is given in Annex A.
