BOLDY CREATIVE
Founder I Educator I Keynote Speaker
Challenging outdated opinions and practices within the construction industry, Peter uses his position as a founder, educator and keynote speaker to encourage change for the better within the passive fire niche and the wider business world.
Backed by a wealth of diverse knowledge, he is driven to waken the broader industry to the importance of getting passive fire right the first time every time and reminding them of the dire consequences on the line if they fail to do so.
Through this passion and over 40 years of accumulated expertise he educates to add value to their projects in addition to protecting life, assets and health. This education has been delivered via client specific training, forums, workshops, programs written for industry bodies and addresses at conferences, most recently the Fire Australia Annual Conference in 2021.
As Technical Director of Plus Systems he oversights a systemised approach to passive fire, developing solutions to technical challenges ensuring compliance standards are developed and maintained.
As an Expert Witness, current member of the 2019 AWCI Technical committee and Director of Plus Systems he aims to Educate, Connect and Transform the construction industry for the better, ultimately protecting lives and livelihoods.
What People Are Saying
“ Peter’s suggestions, ideas and knowledge were gold. It was obvious that Peter was very experienced and really knew his stuff. Furthermore, the training highlighted the tremendous amount of work required to comply, the risks involved for builders and certifies and the certification paperwork that should be required on the completion of the job.”
— Joshua, Building Certifier at Coffs Harbour City Council
“A big thank you to Peter for our on-site training session, as always they provided great insights, highlighting the depth of passive fire challenges. Feedback from our onsite team included that it was a great session and really heightened our need to be diligent”
— Andrew, Badge Constructions
“Peter and the team delivered a great session that we all found very informative – full of insights. It really helped in our understanding the complexity of passive fire protection and the plethora of products being use in the industry. The only issue I had was that there wasn’t enough time. There is so much more that we could have discussed with Peter if time permitted. “
— Nick, Director at Akritidis Group Building Consultants
“The AILD was lucky enough to have Peter present at our 2023 Conference and he was fantastic! The feedback from all the attendees struck very similar tones - Provocative, confronting, and thought-provoking. It’s great to have someone with such intimate knowledge from all sides of the supply chain. We would love to have Peter present again to challenge our thinking and provoke a response. 10/10!”
