When purchasing properties or companies,

it is often necessary to carry out due dili-

gence assessments to ensure that you have

full knowledge of what you are buying. Fire

safety is an essential aspect of this, as

shortfalls in fire safety standards or lack of

maintenance of fire safety systems can

require expensive upgrades, making it is

essential to ensure this is identified before

the purchase.

Xnovest Africa has conducted fire

compliance audits, due diligence and

risk assessments on more than 80

buildings during 2018 and 2019.

These included commercial buildings,

manufacturing sites, government

buildings and hospitals. Compliance is

done according to various standards,

including, but not limited to SANS

10400-T, SANS 1128, SANS 1186,

SANS 10114, SANS 10139, SANS

10287, etc.

A comprehensive report will be provided

stipulating all fire and risk related results

during the assessments. This will assist

the owner to begin with an action plan

towards corrective actions to ensure com-

pliance towards fire safety regulations.

A fire safety audit is an effective tool to

identify areas of non-compliance, and thus

allow corrective or preventative action. This

is a service that will help owners and occu-

piers to ensure that their buildings are safe

and fitted with compliant fire safety installa-

tions and that those fire safety installations

are maintained in an operational condition.

It is therefore essential to ensure continual

compliance with the requirements of the

Occupational Health & Safety Act.

When purchasing or managing properties or

companies, it is often necessary to carry out

condition assessments (also referred to as

Facility Condition Assessments). It is a

systematic inspection, review, and report on

the state of a building’s structure and sys-

tems.

Xnovest Africa has conducted various

Condition Assessments on more than

50 buildings in various sectors, mostly

commercial, retail and industrial.

Due to the experienced resources and

knowledge within our engineering

team, we can successfully provide

detailed expert feedback to the client.

A comprehensive report will be provided

detailing corrective actions, priorities and

estimated associated costs pertaining to:

• Mechanical Services

• Electrical Services

• Wet Services (all water related)

• Fire Services

• General condition (civil)

• Client Specific (eg. ITC, etc)

It is an effective tool to identify areas of non-

compliance, and thus allow for corrective or

preventative action. This is a service that will

help owners and occupants to ensure that

their buildings are up to standard, well main-

tained and the asset’s worth is managed.

It is therefore essential to ensure continual

compliance with the requirements of SANS

10400.

This is done by a competent team of Engi-

neers due to the speciality knowledge neces-

sary to accurately identify and quantify find-

ings and provide detailed reports.

We provide custom solutions to fit each

client’s need. Due to the rising costs

and depletion of our natural resources,

water should be prioritized — for cost

saving measures, process optimization

and because it is the right thing to do.

Conservation through Innovation.

What are standards and how do they help?

• Have you ever stopped to wonder

why you can use your bank card

almost anywhere in the world?

• Or been thankful that the dash-

board symbols in the Japanese

car you have hired in Australia are

the same as in your own German

car at home in Johannesburg?

• Or noticed that you can watch vid-

eo footage delivered via the Web

on any of the different computers

you have access to?

• Or noticed that your baby’s toy

has no sharp edges?

• Or wondered how could fast-food

chains operate the same in differ-

ent countries? These and many other examples of convenience for consumers in every-day life show why standards, especial-ly International Standards, are directly relevant to you.
