    • News

Episode 35 of the Fire Safety Matters Podcast includes Brian in conversation with Alasdair Perry (CEO at the British Automatic Fire Sprinkler Association) and Craig Wells, sales director at passive fire protection solutions specialist Quelfire.

Ali Perry began his career in the Fire and Rescue Service by serving for just shy of seven years with the Lothian and Borders Fire and Rescue Service. The position of assistant inspector with His Majesty’s Inspectorate of Fire and Rescue Services followed before Ali then joined the Scottish Fire and Rescue Service. In addition to his role as CEO at BAFSA, which began in February this year, Ali also serves on the Building Safety Regulator’s Industry Competence Committee.

In conversation with Brian, Ali examines several areas including competence in the sector, sprinkler systems for schools and the recent car park fire at Luton Airport.

Craig Wells joined Quelfire in June 2012 from a family-based contracting business having developed a keen interest in the technical products arena. His current role involves keeping the entire team aligned with their sales targets, while in parallel providing technical support and sales consultancy for prospects, influencers and customers alike.

During the interview with Brian, Craig focuses on the subject of fire stopping and the concept of early engagement for main contractors.

As ever, Brian and Mark Sennett (the CEO of Western Business Media and the founder of Fire Safety Matters) assess several key industry news stories. There’s a concentration on the Building Safety Regulator’s Strategic Plan 2023-2026, the Competence Framework recently unveiled by the Association for Specialist Fire Protection, the Fire and Security Matters Awards 2024 opening for entries and Fire Safety Matters winning Business Publication of the Year at the PPA Independent Publisher Awards 2023.
