We work closely with clients in industry and government to establish an all-hazards approach to comprehensive, well-defined emergency preparedness, crisis management, emergency response, business continuity, and consequence management plans that span all critical phases — from mitigation and emergency preparedness to response and recovery.

Whether plans are mandated by corporate policy or regulatory agencies, effective response plans can reduce impacts of an emergency on employees, the environment and assets. We develop response plans for every industry and operation. These plans incorporate site-specific actions and consistent best-practice procedures that significantly improve quality, accessibility and accuracy of response planning programs.

In addition to fire protection engineering, Jensen Hughes provides fire and emergency services consulting to public and private agencies worldwide. Our team of experienced consultants support clients in achieving public safety through a balance of advanced built-environment features and innovative emergency response systems.

Protecting your occupants and facility during an emergency event such as a fire, severe weather or active shooter scenario starts with emergency planning. Our experts help to develop response procedures to protect lives, property and reputation as well as mitigate liability.

Health Care systems are continually challenged to properly assess their compliance with the Life Safety Code® (NFPA 101), understand the interpretations and exceptions to the Code, and maintain compliance through cost-effective measures. Partnering with our health care safety consultants makes these complex requirements achievable, while bringing positive, reliable outcomes in the event of an emergency.

For any professional involved in fire protection and life safety systems, training should include more than the basics. It should encompass knowledge of codes and standards, fire prevention and protection measures, and address electrical safety hazards.  Ranging from fire suppression systems safety training and installation, to electrical safety, smoke control and emergency communications, our online training platform, Jensen Hughes Academy, provides unmatched knowledge sharing in the industry.  Our experts are consistently involved in developing and delivering programs developed for the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA). We are also a provider of continuing education credits for the International Association of Continued Education (IACET) and the American Institute of Architects (AIA). We also specialize in online and hands-on training and drills to help healthcare facilities reduce the potential for loss of life and injury during fire emergencies, while ensuring regulatory and Life Safety Code® compliance.
