One operating record

The work does not stop when the PDF is issued.

The building record carries the instruction, assessment, evidence, report, action plan and review history. Consultants see what changed, who accepted it and what still needs professional validation.

01

Instruct

Capture scope, fee, client contacts, premises profile, visit dates and assessor competence.

02

Assess

Use controlled methodology packs, plans, photographs, assets and observations on site.

03

Review

Block issue until required evidence, assessor declarations and technical checks are resolved.

04

Close

Give action owners a secure evidence route, then accept, reject or reopen work with an audit trail.

Built around the inspection

Fieldwork that keeps its context.

Evidence remains tied to the floor, space, asset, question and finding where it was captured. That makes later review faster and makes the report easier to defend.

Photographs and annotation

Keep originals, captions, capture metadata, mark-ups and plan pins together.

Plans and building hierarchy

Move through estates, premises, blocks, floors, zones, rooms and external areas.

Asset identity

Scan QR or NFC labels to open the correct fire door, alarm panel, riser or extinguisher record.

Offline evidence queue

Continue recording without a connection, then reconcile revisions and conflicts before sync.

Methodology controls

Freeze the published question set and legal pack used for each assessment revision.

Assessor-owned judgement

AI can help organise evidence, but it cannot set the final risk rating or approve a finding.

Practice control

A portfolio view that tells you where to look.

See overdue actions, report-review queues, expiring competence, upcoming reassessments and evidence awaiting validation across every client. Client users only see the organisations and premises assigned to them.

Technical review

Independent checklists, reviewer comments and issue gates are recorded against an immutable report revision.

Action assurance

Owners can upload completion evidence without a platform account. Closure still requires an authorised validation decision.

Building history

Material changes, previous ratings, issued reports and reopened actions stay attached to the premises record.

Founding plan

One workspace for the whole practice.

Pay for revenue-producing assessor capacity, with sensible office support included. Clients, Responsible Persons, contractors and residents can participate without paid seats.

AI uses the visible Raq.com credit balance. Storage and unusual high-volume automation are discussed before any extra cost or restriction. VAT is added where applicable.

What counts as an active assessor?

A named user assigned assessor fieldwork, or authoring or signing a report, during the billing month. The workspace shows the count before renewal.

What counts as an office user?

A named practice administrator, scheduler, technical reviewer, account manager or finance user who is not already counted as an active assessor.

What is fair use?

Use by one named consultancy and its external collaborators. We agree unusually large migrations, API traffic or automated exports before they can affect service or price.

Assisted pilot

Bring one real assessment.

We will help map your current methodology, report structure and action workflow into a pilot workspace. No standards wording is copied without the required licence.

Questions from fire-safety practices

Does Raq.com replace the assessor?+

No. The system organises information, checks completeness and supports review. A competent person remains responsible for observations, findings, risk ratings and issue approval.

Can we use our existing methodology and report design?+

Yes. The workspace supports versioned practice templates, while each live assessment keeps the exact controlled version it started with. Licensed standards content must be supplied under the correct permissions.

Can clients close their own actions?+

They can acknowledge actions and submit completion evidence through secure links. Your authorised reviewer decides whether to accept, reject or reopen the action.

Does it support housing and resident workflows?+

The data model covers housing fire-risk assessments, relevant-resident records, PCFRA and RPEEP review cycles with restricted access.

How does the active-assessor price work?+

The account is at least £149 a month. Active assessors are £99 each, so two active assessors are £198. Three office users are included, additional office users are £14 each, and external participants are free.
