The Building Safety Act · higher-risk buildings

Delays are not a reflection of regulatory intransigence, but a direct result of failing to meet legal requirements.

— The Building Safety Regulator, on why applications fail

The regulator has been unusually clear. When higher-risk projects stall, are turned back, or expose the people behind them to criminal liability, the cause is rarely the regulator. It is the work not meeting the standard.

Across the gateways and into occupation, the message is the same: the burden of proof is yours, the requirements are exacting, and the consequences of falling short are now personal. STRAND is how you meet them.

This is STRAND,
meeting them.

Every gap named, every change caught, every document assessed, every action receipted — the exacting standard the regulator demands, met continuously and in the open. A live illustration, fully anonymised.

Nothing to install.
Nothing to learn.

There is no software, no dashboard, no training. You email STRAND the way you'd email a colleague — ask it how the fire door package is progressing, or where the pack stands today, and a complete report comes straight back in moments. It works around the clock, it forgets nothing, and it never leaves anyone off the reply.

What STRAND does

Three moments the law
puts on your shoulders.

Occupation, submission, construction — three points where the requirements are exacting and the liability is personal. STRAND is how you meet each one.

Building Safety Cases

Prove an occupied building is safe

When the Regulator directs you to apply for a Building Assessment Certificate, the clock is 28 days and the exposure is criminal. STRAND establishes your exact position in minutes and reconstructs the evidence-grade safety case from whatever survives — even a fire plan on a door.

Also the calmest route through the five-year occupational inspection. No costly surveys, no open-ended consultant fees — one payment, one report, detailed beyond expectation.

Gateway 2

Triage your application pack

The regulator turns most packs back. Send STRAND yours and, in minutes, it assesses every document and all your drawings against what the Regulator actually requires, scores what's there, names what's missing, and shows you how to put it right — before you submit, not after you're rejected.

Live Gateway 3

Protect the consented design

Once the Regulator consents your design, it's sacred. STRAND guards it continuously — the moment a drawing changes it's compared against every prior revision, priced into cost and programme, and every party is told exactly what's being proposed. Drift that shouldn't happen is stopped; change that must happen is routed the least-damaging way.

How Gateway 3 works →

Saying you built it right is not the same
as proving you built it right.

STRAND captures every document, every assessment, every decision — timestamped, attributed, and impossible to edit. The record is built automatically, while the work happens, and it belongs to everyone on the project, not to whoever wrote it.

The golden thread
For the Regulator. A genuine, continuous audit trail — not a folder of PDFs assembled the week before submission.
The project record
For the court. The forensic position — what was known, what was decided, and precisely when — should a dispute ever arrive.

A project is a number.

STRAND holds your evidence, never your people's personal data — by design. A project is known only by a number; the people on it, only by an email address. It took a long time to build it that way. For everyone who has to trust it with a live project, it matters.

Meet the requirements.
Before they meet you.
