From Fragmented to Firepower: How London Fire Brigade Transformed Estate Management with Concerto

London Fire Brigade

Serving over 8 million residents, the London Fire Brigade (LFB) plays a critical role in protecting one of the world's most complex urban environments. But behind the scenes, their estate operations faced a serious challenge.

Relying on a third-party integrator, LFB had limited control over their core property data. Real-time compliance tracking? Patchy. Lifecycle planning? Fragmented. Visibility? Lacking.

They needed to take back control. So, they chose Concerto.

One platform. Total clarity.

Following a competitive review, LFB selected Concerto as the foundation for their digital estates transformation, appointing Bellrock Workplace Services as integration partner.

Together, we redefined what estate visibility looks like:

  • Baseline data upgraded, including measured drawings and asset capture
  • Lifecycle costing introduced for long-term planning
  • Legal agreements digitised and embedded into the system
  • Capital programmes now run via Concerto's Projects & Programmes module

This wasn't just a system switch. It was a strategic evolution.

“Concerto helped us move from siloed systems to a connected, transparent estate ready for the future.”

Real-time access, real impact

With Concerto, LFB staff can now:

  • Log maintenance and estate requests directly
  • Access and track key information instantly
  • Make decisions based on a single, reliable data source

It's simple, secure and designed to meet the demands of frontline operations. And the results have been recognised nationally.

 

In 2022, LFB, in partnership with Legal & General Investment Management (LGIM), won the prestigious PFM Award for excellence in expert service partnerships.

Like LFB, Landsec manages a complex, valuable property portfolio. And like LFB, it needs more than data. It needs connected insight.

LFB's success shows what's possible with the right platform and the right partners. Concerto and Bellrock Workplace Services deliver award-winning solutions.
