Tugger is heading to the Fire Safety Event 2026 at the NEC Birmingham from 28 to 30 April. You'll find us at Stand 4/J27.
We'll be there with live demos, big smiles, and an embarrassing amount of enthusiasm for data warehousing. If you run a fire safety business and want to see what AI can actually do with your operational data, not the marketing version, the real version, come and find us.
And if the demo doesn't convince you, we'll be in the bar afterwards. That usually does the trick.
Why Tugger is at the Fire Safety Event
Fire safety businesses run on data. Job records, compliance checks, maintenance schedules, engineer utilisation, quote conversion rates, invoice values, it's all being captured every day across platforms like Simpro, BigChange, and SafetyCulture.
But getting answers out of that data has always been harder than it should be. Reports take time to build. Exporting to spreadsheets is manual and error-prone. And combining data across systems your job management platform, your accounting package, your HR system is something most businesses simply don't do.
Tugger fixes that. We connect your business systems to a secure data warehouse and give you two powerful ways to get more from your data: ask questions using natural language through AI, or build automated Power BI dashboards that update without anyone touching them.
The Fire Safety Event brings together exactly the kind of businesses we work with every day. We're there to show you what's possible.
What Fire Safety Businesses Are Asking Their Data Right Now
Here are some of the questions fire safety business owners, operations directors, and finance teams are asking through Tugger's AI Insights right now:
Jobs and operations
- "Which jobs are currently running over budget and by how much?"
- "What is our average job completion time by engineer this month?"
- "Show me all scheduled maintenance jobs that are overdue"
- "Which jobs have had the most return visits in the last 6 months?"
- "What is our engineer utilisation rate this week by region?"
Compliance and safety checks
- "Which sites have outstanding fire safety inspections this month?"
- "Show me all failed inspection items from the last 30 days and their current status"
- "Which engineers have the highest pass rate on first visit inspections?"
- "How many compliance certificates are due for renewal in the next 90 days?"
Finance and profitability
- "What is our quoted vs actual margin across all active jobs?"
- "Which clients generate the most revenue but also the most return visits?"
- "Show me all invoices raised this month against their corresponding job costs"
- "What is our average quote-to-job conversion rate this quarter?"
None of these questions require a report to be built or data to be exported. You just ask, and Tugger pulls the answer from your live business data in seconds.
The Systems Tugger Connects for Fire Safety Businesses
Fire safety businesses typically run across multiple platforms. Tugger connects all of them into one warehouse so your data works together rather than sitting in silos.
Simpro is one of the most widely used job management platforms in the fire safety industry. Tugger pulls your job data, quote data, purchase orders, and scheduling information from Simpro and makes it queryable through AI or reportable in Power BI.
BigChange is a field service management platform used by many fire safety and compliance businesses. Tugger connects BigChange job and engineer data to the same warehouse, giving you the same AI and dashboard capability.
SafetyCulture is widely used for inspections, audits, and compliance checks in the fire safety sector. Tugger connects SafetyCulture inspection data so you can ask questions about compliance performance across your entire operation.
Xero, QuickBooks and Sage 50 — connect your job management data to your accounting package and start asking the questions that actually drive profitability. True job margin, cost per engineer, revenue by client, all from one conversation.
BambooHR, Breathe and Deputy — combine your operational data with your people data. Engineer headcount, absence rates, utilisation by team, all alongside your job and financial performance.
A Real Example: True Job Profitability for a Fire Safety Business
Here's a scenario that comes up regularly with fire safety businesses.
You want to know: "Which of our maintenance contracts are actually profitable when you factor in return visits and engineer time?"
In most businesses, answering this requires someone to export Simpro job data, pull the invoice values from Xero, manually calculate the engineer hours, and build a spreadsheet. It takes hours and by the time it's done the data is already out of date.
With Tugger connecting Simpro and Xero, you ask Claude: "For each maintenance contract invoiced in Q1, show me the invoice value, total engineer hours logged, and number of return visits. Rank them by implied margin."
Claude pulls all three datasets, combines them, and surfaces the answer in seconds. You can immediately see which contracts are profitable and which are eating into your margin — and take action while it's still relevant.
Come and See Us at Stand 4/J27
The Fire Safety Event takes place at the NEC Birmingham from 28 to 30 April 2026. You'll find Tugger at Stand 4/J27.
Come and see a live demo of Tugger's AI Insights with real fire safety business data. We'll show you how to ask questions about your Simpro jobs, your compliance checks, your engineer performance, and your financials all in one conversation, using natural language, with no coding required.
We promise to keep it jargon-free, genuinely useful, and mercifully short so you can get back to the show. And if you catch us at the end of the day, the bar conversation tends to be even better than the demo.
If you'd like to book a specific time to meet us at the event, get in touch here and we'll sort it.
