What does "competent person" actually mean under AS1851?

It's one of the most misunderstood terms in the standard and it matters.

Under AS1851, fire safety measures must be inspected and tested by a "competent person". But competency isn't just about holding a licence. It means having the specific skills, knowledge and experience to carry out that service on the specific system.

In practice, this means:

Not all fire contractors are equal.

A technician with skills and knowledge on one system may not be competent for another.

Building owners are responsible for ensuring the people they engage actually meet the standard’s requirements.

If you're a building, facility or property manager relying on a single contractor to service everything in your building, it's worth investigating whether they are genuinely competent across every measure listed on your Fire Safety Schedule?

We are and we're happy to show you how!

What Would You Do?

You arrive at a routine inspection and discover the previous contractor's documentation is missing, three years' worth.

The AFSS is due in 60 days.

No service records. No evidence of long-interval work. No way to verify what's actually been completed on the system. Will the hydrant system take boost pressure? Where are the dampers installed? What is the fire rating of that compartment so you can assess fire seal performance?

What do you do first?

We've been in this position. It's not fun but it's more common than it should be.

Drop your answer in the comments. Genuinely curious how others approach it.

We recently got the whole 2020 Fire crew together - good food, good people and a reminder of what we're all here for.

We started off with an incredible lunch from Smokehouse BBQ, then took some time to talk about what really drives us as a business: We Care. Quality Matters. We Live Safety. Not just words, the foundation of how we show up for our clients and each other, every day.

We finished the afternoon with a fairly competitive darts match and a few laughs too.
Getting everyone in the same room is something we don't take for granted. Here's to more Fridays like this.

When a client takes the time to write in and single out one of your team by name, that says everything.

We recently received this message from one of our clients about our technician Neo:
"Neo's professionalism truly stands out. He consistently demonstrated an outstanding work ethic, always arriving on time and ready to tackle any task at hand. His friendly and approachable attitude ensured smooth communication with both staff and residents."

This is exactly the standard we're proud of at 2020 Fire. Congratulations Neo on this well-earned recognition. 🎉

To our clients, thank you for taking the time to let us know. It means a lot to the team.

Fire warning speaker installation: A trio of towers, the tallest reaching 60 storeys...

Most people don't think about what happens behind the walls of a high-rise until something goes wrong. Our team does.

These speakers are part of the building's Emergency Warning and Intercommunication System (EWIS), designed to cut through ambient noise and wake sleeping residents in a fire emergency. Getting the placement, coverage and output levels right isn't a tick-box exercise. Our team handles the full installation to AS1670.4 requirements, integrated with the building's existing fire detection and control panel.

Proud of the crew for the work on this one.

Congratulations Nigel, it's well deserved. 🎉

Fire Australia 2026: Melbourne

We attended Fire Australia last week and it was a great reminder of why showing up to these events matters.

Strong sessions, relevant topics and good conversations with others across the industry. It was valuable to hear where things are heading and bring those insights back to the team.

If you were there and we didn't get a chance to connect, reach out.

Another new site, another community to look after. This time in Botany.

We've picked up another routine maintenance contract, this time for a residential and commercial property in Botany. Our team will be delivering both Fire and HVAC maintenance across the site, keeping residents safe and businesses running.

Every site we take on is a commitment to look after the people and properties in our care and that's something we don't take lightly.

Three new sites in and the momentum is building. Great work to everyone involved in making it happen.

Building owners & fire contractors - be concerned: The Regulatory body for Accredited Practitioners (Fire Safety) is considering enforcing an audit that Practitioner’s themselves must hold all data from the AFSS Audit for 10 years irrespective of who they are employed by.

What this really means is that your confidential building information - including personal data may be held by individuals on uncontrolled networks, available to other contractors not covered by your contractual arrangements and open to greater chance of data breaches.

Not a risk we’d be willing to take with our own building data and certainly not that of our customers in data centres, hospitals, jails and more………..

We fully support that Practitioners have availability to this data for 10 years, but not by keeping it on uncontrolled networks outside the data safety systems reputable companies run is an insane risk in this cyber-risk world.

How do you think this 10-year requirement should be managed?

Fire Australia 2026 is coming to Melbourne - here's what we're watching.

Fire Australia 2026 returns to Melbourne from 5-7 May and it's shaping up to be one of the most significant industry events in years.

The program this year puts a sharp focus on compliance, lifecycle accountability and real-world system performance, themes that sit right at the heart of what's changed in NSW and what's coming for the rest of the country.

Sessions we're particularly interested in:
• Smoke management - often misunderstood, increasingly scrutinised
• Firestopping in high-density building facades
• Earthquake design of fire safety systems
• End-to-end fire safety performance from design through to maintenance

If you're attending, we'd love to connect. And if you can't make it, we'll be sharing key takeaways here.
