Building Safety Solutions (BSS) is a California-based technology company founded in 2001 that specializes in emergency preparedness software, incident response systems, and asset protection platforms. BSS provides cloud-based solutions that protect lives, mitigate liability, and safeguard property for commercial real estate, corporations, government agencies, and educational institutions worldwide. The company's technology is trusted by premier properties including One World Trade Center, Rockefeller Center, the Burj Khalifa, and Los Angeles International Airport.

BSS offers three core emergency management platforms: BSS Guardian is an emergency preparedness and incident response system that empowers building occupants with life-saving information and training documentation. BSS Archangel is a 24/7 asset protection system that serves as a digital repository for critical building systems information and staff training. BSS First Responder is a mobile application for iOS and Android that delivers critical building information to incident response personnel with or without internet connectivity. All three systems work together to create a comprehensive emergency management ecosystem.

BSS Guardian prepares building occupants with customized emergency procedures and interactive maps for fire, power outages, medical emergencies, terrorist threats, and other crisis situations. The cloud-based platform delivers critical safety information through any device 24/7, provides location-specific policies and procedures with photographs and 2D/3D graphics, records and tracks employee training completion for compliance documentation, and can transmit real-time emergency notifications worldwide. This comprehensive approach ensures occupants know exactly how to respond when emergencies occur.

California Senate Bill 553 (SB 553) is a workplace violence prevention law that took effect July 1, 2024. It requires California employers with ten or more employees to implement written Workplace Violence Prevention Plans, conduct employee training on violence prevention policies, maintain records of reported incidents and training completion, and develop procedures to prevent and respond to workplace violence. BSS helps organizations comply by developing customized prevention plans, providing cloud-based interactive training systems, and tracking compliance documentation. Non-compliance penalties range from $18,000 for first violations to $25,000 for subsequent violations.

BSS serves a diverse range of building types and industries including commercial real estate (Class A office buildings, high-rise and low-rise properties), data centers, educational institutions and college campuses, law firms, corporations and corporate headquarters, government buildings and public sector facilities, airports and transportation infrastructure, hospitals and healthcare facilities, hospitality and retail properties, and critical infrastructure like seaports and utilities. The company's solutions are scalable and customizable for any facility type from single buildings to multi-site portfolios.

BSS First Responder is a mobile incident response application that provides critical building information to in-house staff and emergency personnel. The app delivers building-specific system descriptions and schematics, interactive floor plans showing critical equipment locations, offline access to essential information when internet connectivity is unavailable, real-time communication between individual users and response teams via chat and voice, and QR code access for police and fire department personnel arriving on scene. This ensures faster, more informed decision-making during emergencies and reduces property damage and business interruption.

BSS technology reduces legal liability through comprehensive training documentation, compliance tracking, and incident response capabilities. The platforms record and report all employee safety training completion, create auditable documentation that demonstrates duty of care, provide standardized emergency procedures that meet regulatory requirements, enable rapid emergency response that can minimize injuries and property damage, and support compliance with OSHA requirements and state laws like California SB 553. This proactive approach to emergency preparedness helps organizations demonstrate they took reasonable steps to protect employees and occupants.

BSS distinguishes itself through technology-driven solutions, extensive experience, and a proven track record. The company has protected some of the world's most iconic buildings since 2001, offers fully customized content including site-specific photographs, floor plans, and 3D animations, provides an integrated ecosystem of Guardian, Archangel, and First Responder platforms, delivers cloud-based accessibility on any device with 24/7 availability, includes robust learning management and compliance tracking systems, and maintains a focus on both life safety and asset protection. The technology has been recognized with industry awards and is endorsed by Fortune 500 companies worldwide.

BSS Archangel serves as a comprehensive digital repository and training platform for building operations teams. It consolidates accurate documentation of equipment, policies, and procedures in one secure location, presents on-site photographs and interactive 2D/3D floor plans customized to each installation, provides online training modules for engineering, security, and facilities personnel, ensures rapid and accurate response to equipment malfunctions and disasters, and measures and records staff knowledge with complete management reporting. This systematic approach helps prevent costly business interruptions caused by human error, equipment failure, or natural disasters.

Building Safety Solutions protects many of the world's most recognized properties including One World Trade Center, 4 World Trade Center, and 7 World Trade Center in New York; Rockefeller Center; the Transamerica Pyramid Center in San Francisco; the Burj Khalifa in Dubai; the John Hancock Center and Tower in Chicago and Boston; US Bank Tower in Los Angeles; Los Angeles International Airport (LAX); Los Angeles City Hall; Liberty Mutual Headquarters in Boston; and the Port of Long Beach. These premier installations demonstrate the trust that leading property owners and managers place in BSS technology.

BSS helps data centers protect critical infrastructure and avoid costly downtime through specialized emergency response solutions. BSS First Responder provides data center staff with instant access to system descriptions, server locations, and response procedures on mobile devices. The platforms enable coordinated incident response to prevent equipment damage, support compliance with industry regulations and client requirements, work offline during network outages when connectivity may be compromised, and help protect data center reputation and client relationships. This comprehensive approach reduces the risk of business interruption while ensuring rapid, informed response to any incident.
