About us
Our mission is to create a safer, less complicated and lower cost life for those living in and legally responsible for Higher-Risk Buildings (HRBs). By providing a comprehensive, intuitive and automated software platform, we ensure that the Golden Thread, Safety Case and Resident Engagement remains at the heart of building safety management.
Our Values
Ch’i or qi (氣) is often described as energy or life force. For us, it’s a reminder that what we do isn’t just process-driven, it has a real impact on real people.
We use CHI as a way to stay grounded in all we do:
Commitment
Your problem is our problem, we won’t rest until it’s resolved
Humanity
People are at the heart of everything we do
Integrity
Doing the right thing, even when no one is watching
Not just as words, but in how we act, how we support people, and how we make decisions every day.
