Building Safety Case Reports

The Building Safety Act 2022 identifies the Accountable Person (AP) as having an ongoing duty to assess building safety risk and provide Building Safety Case Reports. The AP might be the building owner, freeholder, or management company.

The Building Safety Case report is expected to contain an assessment of the building safety risks and identify the steps taken to address, mitigate and control the risks identified. The required components to of a report include:

• Building description
• Risk assessment and control measures
• Safety management system
• Reporting occurrences and complaint mechanisms
• Resident engagement strategy

Building Safety Case Reports made easy with Catalyst’s Guidance and Software

Based on our extensive experience helping clients align with legislative changes in the construction industry, we have developed a Building Safety Case Report framework which makes is easier and faster for clients to complete reports. Our framework is delivered on our obi® software, a platform our clients have been using to digitally track quality and compliance across their real estate assets for more than 10 years.

The Catalyst team will guide you through each step to build up your Building Safety Case Report which you’ll then submit to the Building Safety Regulator (BSR).
