Fire safety, service charges, contractor chasing, resident complaints, regulatory deadlines — you hold it all together. Brocade gives you one place to track, assign, and prove everything you're already doing.
One day you're translating a lease clause. The next you're chasing a contractor, calculating a service charge budget, and explaining fire regulations to a worried resident. The Building Safety Act raised the stakes — but the breadth of the job was already overwhelming. You shouldn't have to figure it out alone.
You signed up to manage a building — not to carry personal criminal liability. But the Building Safety Act means non-compliance can lead to prosecution and unlimited fines. On top of everything else you’re already juggling, that weight shouldn’t sit on spreadsheets and memory.
You know the evidence exists — somewhere in an email thread, a filing cabinet, a shared drive. When the regulator asks, you need it in one place, not scattered across a decade of ad-hoc filing.
Years of safety history live in one person’s head. When they leave — or when you’re the one starting fresh — there’s no record of what was done, who did it, or why.
Fire risk actions, service charge deadlines, contractor follow-ups, regulatory submissions, resident complaints — they pile up across every building you manage. When something slips through, there’s no one else to blame.
You're tracking fire safety, assigning contractors, chasing evidence, updating residents, and documenting it all — across every building. Brocade brings it into one platform with the audit trail to prove you've done it right.

Everything you need to know about Golden Thread compliance, how Brocade works, and what makes it different.
The Golden Thread is the Building Safety Act’s requirement to maintain accurate, up-to-date information about a higher-risk building’s design, construction, and ongoing management throughout its lifecycle. It covers structural data, fire safety systems, maintenance records, and evacuation procedures. Brocade helps you maintain this thread systematically — so you can demonstrate compliance whenever the Building Safety Regulator asks.
If you manage a higher-risk building (18 metres or 7+ storeys with at least two residential units), you have legal obligations under the Building Safety Act including maintaining a Golden Thread, tracking fire risk assessment actions, and preparing for BSR assessments. While not legally required, compliance software like Brocade gives you structured, auditable records in place of the spreadsheets and email chains you’ve been making work that demonstrate active safety management.
Brocade follows the natural compliance cycle: upload your fire risk assessment, log actions with priorities and due dates, assign work to team members or contractors, collect evidence as work is completed, and verify completion. The compliance dashboard shows your status across documents, fire risk assessment actions, and scheduled checks — so you always know where you stand.
Yes — Brocade is designed for portfolios. The portfolio dashboard gives you at-a-glance compliance status for every building. Cross-building work views let you triage outstanding actions, issues, and checks across your entire portfolio. Consistent processes apply to every building, and per-building access control ensures team members see only what they need.
Residents get a mobile-friendly portal for their building where they can view the fire strategy, report issues with photo evidence, and track issue progress with email notifications at each stage. No app download is needed — the portal works in any browser. This supports the Act’s requirement for building managers to promote resident participation in building safety decisions.
Yes. Brocade uses a deny-by-default security model where every page requires authentication. Data is isolated at the database level using row-level security, all passwords are checked against breach databases, accounts lock after repeated failed logins, and API endpoints are rate-limited. Audit trails use tamper-evident checksum chains for compliance-grade evidence.
You’ve made spreadsheets work because you had to — but they have no versioning, no reminders, no access control, no audit trail, and they don’t survive when you move on. Brocade gives you versioned documents, priority-based due dates, email reminders, evidence attachments, cross-building views, and a complete audit trail — and it’s just as easy to use.
