Commercial Building Warrant of Fitness - What you need to know
If you own a commercial building, you may need to provide us with a Building Warrant of Fitness (BWOF) each year. This ensures your building is safe to use.
The Building Act 2004 requires the owners of buildings with
specified systems (such as a fire sprinkler system or lifts) to supply councils with an annual
BWOF. This confirms the systems listed in your building's compliance schedule are working as they should.
The attached information will help you meet your obligations.
