ProFire - ORS

Overview

We are proud to announce the acquisition of ProFire & Design, a highly respected fire safety consultancy based in Kildare. This marks a significant milestone in our strategic growth journey and further strengthens our position as Ireland’s largest provider of fire safety and disability access consultancy services.

Founded in 2001, ProFire brings deep expertise in navigating Ireland’s complex fire safety regulations, with a strong track record in compliance, certification, and licensing across multiple sectors. Their addition to the ORS Group enhances our ability to meet rising demand for fire safety expertise, particularly in light of the 2024 Building Regulations Technical Guidance Document B, which introduces more stringent compliance requirements.

This acquisition reflects our ongoing commitment to innovation, quality, and delivering exceptional value to our clients. Supported by Erisbeg, we continue to scale both organically and through strategic acquisitions, ensuring we remain at the forefront of our industry while upholding the highest standards of service.

ORS was also pleased to acquire GSP Fire, a well-established fire safety and disability access consultancy with offices in Waterford and Kilkenny. Founded in 1995, GSP Fire has earned a strong reputation in Ireland and abroad, led by Chartered Engineers and experienced Fire Safety Consultants.

Together, these strategic acquisitions position ORS as Ireland’s leading provider of Fire Safety and Disability Access Consultancy services.
