For passive fire contractors, proving an installation was done right now matters as much as doing it. The right fire protection software turns site evidence into an audit-ready record, without the paperwork chase at handover.

From specialist platforms designed for specialist fire protection contractors to broader construction management tools, here are five software solutions worth knowing about.

1. Onetrace: best for passive fire and specialist subcontractors

Onetrace is fire protection software that began in passive fire and is used by specialist subcontractors to record installation work. Operatives pin each installation to a digital drawing and attach photos and materials, and supervisors approve work as it progresses. Configurable forms and instant handover reports sit alongside workforce tools, including planner, timesheets, RAMS and toolbox talk sign-offs.

The mobile app works offline, and the platform also covers dry lining, insulation and M&E packages. Customers get dedicated onboarding and live support.

2. PlanRadar: best for defect and snagging management

PlanRadar provides digital documentation and communication tools for construction and property management. Its platform allows teams to work with digital floor plans, document defects, assign tasks and track issues through to resolution.

For projects involving fire safety, these features can help coordinate inspections, manage outstanding work and keep relevant project information accessible to the teams responsible for completing it.

3. Procore: best for main contractors on multi-trade projects

Procore is a construction management platform designed to connect people, information and processes across a project. Its tools cover areas including project management, document control, quality assurance and site safety, giving teams a shared view of project activity.

It is particularly relevant to businesses managing complex projects involving multiple contractors and stakeholders, where coordination, communication and oversight across different stages of construction are key priorities.

4. Mitti (formerly SafetyCulture): best for site inspections and safety checks

Mitti, which rebranded from SafetyCulture in 2026, provides digital tools for inspections, audits, incident reporting and workplace training. Teams complete checklists, document hazards, record findings and assign corrective actions.

For construction businesses, it supports routine site safety checks and standardised inspection processes across teams and locations. It is a broad operations tool, so it fits fire safety checks well but is not built for installation-level passive fire traceability.

5. Bolster Systems: best for surveys and seal labelling

Bolster Systems is a UK compliance tool for fire stopping work, covering surveys, installation logging and client reporting. Installers survey existing penetrations, log completed seals and print seal-specific labels on site using mobile printers.

It can attach manufacturers' tested details to individual seals and generate O&M manuals from manufacturer data. Its focus is fire stopping specifically, so it suits firestopping contractors whose priority is labelling and survey records rather than managing a wider workforce or other trade packages.

Choosing the right solution for you

Choosing the right platform comes down to the level of detail and control your projects require. Consider how easily it captures site evidence, supports inspections, tracks outstanding work and produces the documentation clients need at handover.

It is also worth checking mobile functionality, offline access and how well the software fits your existing workflows before making a decision.
