Risk and project objectives
Define life safety, property protection and continuity objectives. Assess the required protection against materials and process hazards.
Fire-safety engineering and technical consultancy
Assess technical options for investments, tenders and system improvements against risk, operating needs and lifecycle cost.
Fire-safety engineering and technical consultancy
Ground investment decisions in engineering evidence.
The right fire-protection system is not selected by purchase price alone. Özkartay assesses facility hazards, existing infrastructure, operating priorities and project objectives together. We compare options and clarify specifications and delivery scope so the decision can be carried into the project.
01
Technical consultancy process
Bring the problem definition, option comparison and practical decision into one workflow.
Objectives and current conditions
Define the investment, expansion or existing-system issue. Review architecture, processes, system documentation and site conditions to identify missing design inputs.
Design basis and scope
Record the hazards, operating constraints, adopted standards and acceptance criteria. Keep assumptions and information needing confirmation explicit in the decision package.
Compare technical alternatives
Compare systems by protection needs, water or agent supply, space, integration, maintenance and access. Identify conditions under which an option is unsuitable.
Specifications and tender inputs
Define performance requirements, equipment scope, documentation, tests and handover records. Provide a clear basis for comparing quotations on equivalent technical scope.
Decision and next step
Present the recommendation with cost and operational effects. Transfer the agreed approach into detailed design, procurement, installation or an improvement plan.
02
Technical factors affecting the decision
Assess options against facility priorities and verified information.
CAPEX and OPEX together
Review maintenance access, consumables, tests, spares and interruption alongside initial investment. Evaluate cost advantages within the actual scope and operating conditions.
Standards and documentation
Verify adopted standards, product approvals and company credentials separately. A standard name or membership does not establish identical certification for all equipment.
Existing infrastructure and feasibility
Check water supply, power, pipework, space and existing controls against the proposed solution. Plan required field measurements and detailed calculations before implementation decisions.
03
Consultancy by investment stage
Shape the work around the stage at which the decision is needed.
New facility investments
- Decision need
- Selecting protection alongside architecture and processes.
- Consultancy output
- Compare the design basis, system options and space / supply needs early.
Existing facility improvements
- Decision need
- Infrastructure limits, open risks and operating interruptions.
- Consultancy output
- Prioritise current-condition findings and plan staged implementation and additional measurements.
Tenders and quotation review
- Decision need
- Comparing different scopes against the same project need.
- Consultancy output
- Compare performance, documentation, testing and handover requirements in a common technical review.
Capacity and use changes
- Decision need
- New racks, processes or protected volumes.
- Consultancy output
- Assess effects on existing protection and carry the selected approach into detailed design and the implementation programme.

| Deliverable | Content | Next use |
|---|---|---|
| Current conditions / needs | Risks, objectives and open inputs | Design scope |
| Option comparison | Technical and operational effects | Investment decision |
| Specification inputs | Performance, records and acceptance conditions | Tender / quotation evaluation |
| Implementation recommendation | Priorities and required detailed work | Design / procurement / improvement |
Define site review, calculation and drawing scope before quotation. Establish a separate detailed implementation design scope where required.
A sound technical decision makes the reasons and conditions behind the selection clear. Share existing-system information, objectives and budget limits to establish its engineering basis.
