In March 2024, NFPA announced the creation of NFPA Global Solutions™, an entirely separate, fully owned NFPA corporation that offers compliance solutions, digital products, and advisory services that extend beyond the traditional products and services offered by NFPA. Although NFPA Global Solutions is part of the larger NFPA family, it has a separate staff and board of directors. Additionally, NFPA standards development remains under the non-profit 501(c)(3) operation of NFPA, and neither NFPA nor NFPA Global Solutions staff can be participants in the NFPA standards process.
NFPA Global Advisors™, a business line within NFPA Global Solutions, offers advisory services to governments and companies around the world related to the implementation of the NFPA Fire & Life Safety Ecosystem™. NFPA Global Advisors is not a fire protection engineering consulting company. In fact, their work will help increase the need for engineering services offered by fire protection engineering firms.
