WHAT WE DO

Regulatory Compliance with Confidence

At OMC Engineering Consultants, we specialise in the preparation and management of Fire Safety Certificates (FSC) and Disability Access Certificates (DAC), ensuring that your building design complies with statutory regulations from the outset.

Our in-depth knowledge of Part B (Fire Safety) and Part M (Access and Use) of the Building Regulations allows us to guide your project smoothly through the approval process while integrating best-practice design solutions.

A Fire Safety Certificate is a legal requirement for most new buildings, extensions, and material changes of use. OMC provides expert guidance and full support throughout the FSC application process.
