Credwell Consulting are ready to advise and consult on all aspects of the National Construction Code (NCC), formerly the Building Code of Australia, as well as all associated building legislation. We appreciate and understand that our clients face many challenges within the industry and so we consider these matters when providing NCC advice and guidance. Through experience, we have found that greater value is achieved by taking a more practical approach when and where construction does not go according to plan. We are flexible in our approach to services, putting the needs of our clients first, offering tailored services as required, including, but not limited to the types of reporting listed below.
If you wish to gain further insight into these reports and the circumstances in which they prove value, as tailored to your needs, feel free to call us for a chat about the general scope of each type of report and the most effective approach towards fulfilling all necessary requirements.
Whether you are renovating or upgrading your existing premises, designing a new building, considering moving premises or just require a little advice on accessible, adaptable, liveable or universal design Credwell Consulting are here to help.

Whether you need to understand deficiencies in, or plan to upgrade an existing building in relation to fire safety, Credwell Consulting can help by providing a comprehensive audit report that details the pertinent matters for consideration.
As well as assessing the building against the requirements of the NCC and providing a detailed schedule of compliance, the report itself also provides an upgrading strategy prioritised by urgency and importance with the works required to be undertaken within each section. Depending on the scope and scenario, advice and guidance can be provided with regards to the most effective route for obtaining a building permit, which may involve assessment against various legislative acts and regulations at state and federal levels, as well as consideration as to whether the works required can be augmented and rationalised in such a way that a particular and preferable route can be achieved. The approach taken is to understand the scope and requirements of the project and confirm subsequent options given the relevant parts of the NCC, legislation, and regulations. Flexibility is available for reporting in which a customised content can be provided also.
The report can form the basis of a scope of works that can be used to create specifications and documentation for tendering purposes and lists the required fire safety measures for the building, which have the opportunity to be consolidated where available. From experience, many Fire Safety Schedules are only partially complete in the information that should be provided in accordance with industry expectations, so the upgrade report occasions the chance to prepare a fully comprehensive schedule that will ensure the correct and proper maintenance of fire safety measures going forward.
Credwell Consulting have completed many fire upgrade reports for a variety of clients and buildings with a range of needs and requirements and are available to attend site to inspect the resulting upgrades and answer queries that arise during the course of the project. Once the works are satisfactorily complete, written confirmation that the works meet the requirements of the upgrading strategy can be issued.
