Expert Fire Safety Solutions for Government Projects

For over 30 years, Jensen Hughes has partnered with the Australian Department of Defence, providing expert fire safety engineering services. Our work spans multiple federal government projects, including Parliament House, where we have acted as the lead fire engineers.
