QUINCY,
Mass., March 28, 2024 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- The
National Fire Protection Association® (NFPA®), a global self-funded
nonprofit organization devoted to eliminating death, injury,
property, and economic loss due to fire, electrical, and related

Solutions™.
"NFPA Global Solutions and NFPA Global
Advisors allow us to further advance the NFPA mission and support
our customers and stakeholders to enhance fire, life and electrical
safety, in alignment with the NFPA Fire & Life Safety
Ecosystem." - Jim Pauley
In support of the NFPA mission, NFPA Global Solutions is a
fully-owned NFPA corporation that will offer compliance solutions,
digital products, and advisory services that extend beyond the
traditional products and services offered by NFPA. NFPA also
announced a new business line within NFPA Global Solutions called
NFPA Global Advisors™. NFPA Global Advisors will help governments
and companies around the world improve safety through the
implementation of the NFPA Fire & Life Safety Ecosystem™. While
NFPA codes and standards are used and applied globally today, this
entity will help expand that system of safety in each area outlined
in the ecosystem cogs.
This expansion under NFPA President and CEO Jim Pauley's leadership is part of an ambitious
plan to further the NFPA mission via acquisitions and new offerings
to serve the broader safety needs across the globe to tackle
persistent and emerging challenges.
NFPA Global Solutions will be led by Carlos Correia, formerly NFPA vice president of
strategic initiatives. As President of NFPA Global Solutions,
Correia will oversee the entity's growth, including acquisitions,
innovation, and scaling within related sectors. Additionally,
Keith Williams, former CEO of UL,
and Michael Wallace, former
executive director of business development for Carrier Corporation,
have been appointed as independent board members.
"The nature and intensity of safety risks continue to evolve,"
said Pauley. "NFPA Global Solutions and NFPA Global Advisors allow
us to further advance the NFPA mission and support our customers
and stakeholders to enhance fire, life and electrical safety, in
alignment with the NFPA Fire & Life Safety Ecosystem, a
framework that identifies the components that must work together to
minimize risk and help prevent loss."
NFPA Global Solutions is dedicated to aiding companies in
demonstrating compliance to standards and regulations, helping
promote innovation, safety, and acceptance in the marketplace. NFPA
Global Solutions will introduce digital products to assist NFPA
customers and stakeholders in mitigating risks, enhancing safety,
and creating operational efficiency.
NFPA Global Advisors offers services to help governments and
companies establish and/or improve their systems of safety. NFPA
