We’re happy to announce that PRP has been successfully appointed to a new contract to continue to support the work of the Welsh Government Building Safety Team via Communities and Housing Investment Consortium (CHIC). 

The Welsh Building Safety Fund aims to address Fire building safety defects in medium and high-rise residential buildings in Wales. With the overall objective being to do so in a timely fashion to allow the residents of these buildings to continue to live safely in their homes. 

There are four key areas impacting the safety of these buildings that will be considered: cladding, compartmentation, fire suppression systems (sprinklers and misting systems), fire alarm and evacuation alert systems.

CHIC’s members can use their Frameworks and DPS solutions to provide professional support and solutions to help address these issues.

Andrew Mellor, Partner at PRP said: “We are very pleased to be awarded this opportunity via CHIC and to be able to continue our work with the Welsh Government with regards to Building Safety. Ensuring the safety of residents in multi-occupancy residential blocks is paramount and the work procured via this framework will enable the initial stages of that journey for many buildings in Wales.”
