A new copy of NFPA 2500 – Standard on Organizational Capabilities for Technical Search and Rescue and Life Safety Rope and Equipment for Emergency Services arrived today.

Along with it was a letter recognizing TRR’s Colin LeGrow for the contribution as a member of the Technical Committee on Technical Search and Rescue.

Participation in standards development helps us do better work for our clients.

Standards establish important requirements and benchmarks. Knowing what a standard says and understanding how to apply it effectively is not always the same thing.

Participation gives us greater familiarity with the discussions, context and considerations behind the requirements.

We bring that knowledge back through our instructor development, rescue planning, training programs, equipment decisions and the advice we provide.

It also reinforces an important point we strongly believe in - Standards Compliance is the starting point—not the finish line.

A standard cannot anticipate every scenario. Safety and rescue planning still requires competent people to understand the task assess the actual risks, and determine where additional controls, equipment, practice or focused training may be warranted.

There is a cost to maintaining this level of involvement. It requires time away from operations, ongoing professional development and investment in our people.

We recognize that this involvement is made possible by the support of our clients and our crew. Every client who chooses TRR helps support the time and resources required for us to participate in standards development, continually develop our people and contribute back to the industry. Thank you for making that possible.

That investment is reflected in the value we offer.

Our clients aren't simply paying for an instructor, rescue technician or consultant for the day. They're accessing the experience, professional development and industry involvement behind that person.

We believe that makes us better instructors, advisors and partners to the organizations that trust us.

We're proud to contribute to the development of our industry—and even more proud to bring what we learn back to our clients.

Thank you!

What a week and what a day! Our own crew re-cert'd their rope access levels and we have a newly minted L1. A week of training, practice and fun winds up with a 3rd party testing day lead by the legendary Daniel Thornton of Keltic Falcon Rope Access Experts.
