The AESMR service - what we do

Survey and Report - Comprehensive Onsite AESMR Service

At Northern Plains Building Services, we provide more than just compliance paperwork. Our team attends your site and performs a careful, thorough survey of your building, ensuring every Essential Safety Measure (ESM) is properly maintained and documented.

Who Will Benefit

  • Lessees and Building Occupiers who want assurance that all ESMs have been competently inspected or tested, are functional and their environment is secure.
  • Owners Corporations & Strata Managers seeking independent verification of ESM compliance.
  • Building Managers who need confidence that maintenance contractors are meeting standards.
  • Property Owners preparing for audits or insurance reviews and require documented proof of compliance.

If you value safety, compliance, and peace of mind for everyone in the building, this service is designed for you.

How It Works

  1. Onsite Inspection
    We inspect all ESMs against their logbooks and reports (both hard copies and digital records).
  2. Independent Assessment
    A qualified Building Surveyor determines whether services have been competently undertaken before issuing the AESMR.
  3. Detailed Reporting
    You receive a summary of findings, outlining ESM status and clear recommendations for any corrective actions.

What Sets Us Apart

  • Photographic Verification to AS 1851-2012 standards—trusted for insurance compliance.
  • Qualified Building Surveyor oversight for accuracy and regulatory compliance.
  • Actionable Insights with clear recommendations, not just a compliance certificate.
  • Direct access to your assessor for anytime communication and a lasting professional relationship.

Why Choose This Option

Our approach guarantees AS 1851 compliance, supports audit readiness, and provides peace of mind for lessees, occupiers, owners, and managers. With Northern Plains Building Services, you’re not just meeting obligations—you’re ensuring safety and protecting your investment.
