BS 8644-1:2022, Digital management of fire safety information. Part 1: Design, construction, handover, asset management and emergency response - Code of practice. This new British Standard provides a code of practice for the digital management of fire safety information throughout the lifecycle of a building. It aligns with the principles of the 'Golden Thread' of information mandated by the Building Safety Act 2022. The standard gives recommendations on processes for creating, maintaining, and sharing accurate and up-to-date fire safety information in a digital format. It aims to prevent the loss of critical data between project stages and ensure that building owners, managers, and emergency responders have access to the information they need to manage fire safety effectively. This page provides a structured summary, key provisions, and practical guidance on the application of BS 8644-1 Digital management fire info to UK fire safety engineering, building design, and Building Safety Act compliance.
