Summary
CalmCompliance is one connected platform for everything involved in keeping a building safe, compliant, and well-maintained. Policies, risk assessments, incident reports, safety checks, assets, and maintenance schedules, they all live in one accessible place. It's the alternative to messy, disconnected spreadsheets, paper, and half a dozen separate software tools.
With SFG20 embedded directly into the platform, statutory maintenance standards now sit alongside the rest of your operational activity. Your team gets the recognised benchmark used by over 2,500 organisations worldwide, developed by the Building Engineering Services Association (BESA), delivered inside a system they're already working in every day.
That means:
- SFG20's criticality-coded schedules (red, amber, green) available to the people on the ground, on mobile, in the moment
- Recurring maintenance that sets up once and runs on its own, with automated reminders, photo evidence, and complete audit trails
- Assets with full lifecycle visibility, linked to their SFG20 schedules so service history, warranties, and compliance status are always at a glance
- Inspection-ready evidence pulled from the same data your team uses to run the building day to day.
The result: fewer tools, less admin, lower cost, and a single source of truth when the inspector arrives.
CalmCompliance is a UK-based software platform built to help organisations simplify time-consuming and often costly compliance tasks. Not by making things more complex, but by bringing forms, incidents, policies, assets, risks, and planned maintenance together in a single, digital, and crucially, auditable system. Built for any organisation that runs a physical premises or building, CalmCompliance is especially well-suited to multi-site schools and trusts, offices, charities, and community estates. It also serves customers across hospitality, manufacturing, and SMEs. Our mission is straightforward: make compliance invisible. Other tools manage compliance. Calm makes it feel like something your team already does, without thinking about it. Trusted by organisations including: Wycombe Abbey, 4 Community Trust, ACS Staffing, Braeburn Schools, West Heath School, and KickStart Learning.

Frequently asked questions
Any regimes that users create in Facilities-iQ using SFG20 content can flow into your CAFM system. Each time SFG20 updates its content, Facilities-iQ license holders will receive an automated update notification. Users can review the changes in a side-by-side view for easy comparison versus the previous version.
Yes, it is! You need an SFG20 license to benefit from viewing our content and any CAFM software can connect into our API so we can share our content with the system of your choice.
The data SFG20 requests from your CAFM system only relates to the completion of maintenance tasks (has a task been completed and, if so, what date).
- This will enable us to create reporting to show you your level of compliance vs. your current maintenance regime. Remember that SFG20 schedules enable you to remain compliant with the law and industry best practice.
- SFG20 reporting will allow you to see clearly where you need to focus efforts to achieve compliance, and it will help you to maintain a golden thread of information about your building.
If you're using a CAFM provider that has already connected via our API then no, your CAFM provider can simply turn on access to the integration on their end using an API key. If your CAFM provider is not yet integrated with SFG20 then all you need to do is request that their developers connect with us. It's quick and easy to do so.
