At C&M Fire Alarms, we understand the importance of being fully regulated and in line with accredited third parties and suppliers. We’re delighted to confirm that we hold the following accreditations and memberships:
FORS Bronze
C&M are proud to have been accredited with FORS Bronze. FORS (Fleet Operator Recognition Scheme) is a voluntary accreditation scheme for fleet operators that aims to raise the level of quality within fleet operations. It demonstrates which operators are achieving exemplary levels of best practice in safety, efficiency, and environmental protection.
ISO9001 – UKAS
In order to achieve ISO9001 standard, C&M Fire Alarms have had to prove we can meet the regulatory requirements and can provide a foundation for excellent customer satisfaction, staff motivation and ongoing business improvement. Some of the benefits of being ISO9001 accredited include our senior management team being given an efficient management process as well as fantastic marketing opportunities. Customer satisfaction and overall excellence is key to C&M Fire Alarms with our loyal clients being at the heart of all we do.
BAFE Modular Scheme SP203-1
BAFE (British Approvals for Fire Equipment) registered schemes recognise the importance of compliant fire detection and alarm systems and C&M Fire Alarms are pleased to be accredited to the independent certification business for the fire protection industry. Being a part of BAFE allows our team to take part in rigorous training and education programmes that cover a spectrum of services including system design, installation and safe maintenance. Founded in 1984, BAFE is a voluntary registration scheme but allows our experts to stay on top of industry progressions and safety updates. What’s more, many business insurers specify that company’s must use a BAFE approved supplier for their fire alarm and detection services; a box that C&M Fire Alarms can certainly tick.
RISQS
We are pleased to confirm we are RISQS (Railway Industry Supplier Qualification Scheme) Audited and approved for our larger railway clients with the scheme being the single entry point for rail industry suppliers such as ourselves. We have extensive experience at designing, installing and maintaining fire detection products for many large railway stations across the UK, including London Victoria station, and therefore our relationship and accreditation with RISQS is of huge significance. Our accreditation means we’re a recognised railway supplier and are held with high esteem within the industry.

We’re regularly audited by SafeContractor to ensure our experts are following all guidelines and protocols and we’re also offered regular in-depth training on how to ensure health and safety is at the forefront of all we do.

FIA
The Fire Industry Association (FIA) shapes legislation surrounding fire industry standards and is the largest fire protection trade association in the UK. The not-for-profit organisation is a major provider of training and our accreditation means C&M Fire Alarms have access to their rigorous training and education programmes. The FIA’s main objective is to promote and perfect fire protection methods, devices and services and the corporation achieves this through their technical support programme, training schemes and expert guidance; all of which our raft of C&M Fire Alarms engineers take advantage of on a regular basis.
