Detect & Protect Limited supports project teams developing fire sprinkler information for Gateway 2 submissions. Our involvement brings sprinkler design and practical delivery experience into the wider design coordination process.
We have already assisted clients through the Gateway 2 process and can provide references on request. Our focus is on helping teams develop clear, coordinated sprinkler information and understand the interfaces that affect installation.
Early specialist input into sprinkler design
When a submission programme is being planned, early engagement provides an opportunity to discuss the sprinkler scope, review the available information and identify the decisions that need input from the wider team.
Our support can include:
- Fire sprinkler design and technical coordination.
- Preparation of sprinkler design information for Gateway 2.
- Coordination with the wider design team.
- Buildability and installation reviews.
- Ongoing sprinkler design development through the process.
These activities help bring design intent and practical delivery considerations into the same conversation. They also provide a basis for tracking questions and agreeing the information needed as the design progresses.
Connecting design development with installation
Our role can continue beyond the preparation of design information into sprinkler installation, commissioning, certification and handover. Keeping those stages connected helps maintain continuity as the project moves from coordinated drawings to site delivery.
Practical reviews can consider the installation sequence, access and interfaces with other services. The aim is to identify coordination matters early enough for the relevant project teams to address them.
Planning the next stage with your project team
Every scheme has its own scope, design status and programme. We welcome early discussions with contractors and consultants so that the sprinkler input can be planned around the wider submission and delivery requirements.
