We have had the pleasure of working with Jigsaw Life Safety across our life science and commercial portfolio, and they have consistently proven to be an exceptional partner. Their team demonstrates a continuous commitment to supporting our buildings with life safety compliance, laboratory safety requirements, professional engineering assistance, and ongoing code guidance.
Jigsaw brings a practical, fact-based approach to every engagement. Rather than offering generalized opinions, they provide clear, code-referenced direction that helps us make informed decisions and confidently navigate complex regulatory environments. Their expertise has been instrumental in areas such as life safety evaluations, laboratory control area reviews, chemical and hazardous material compliance, and coordination with applicable authorities having jurisdiction.
What sets Jigsaw apart is their responsiveness and collaborative mindset. They work alongside our team—not just as consultants, but as true partners—helping us proactively identify risks, close compliance gaps, and implement solutions that protect both our tenants and our facilities. Their guidance consistently steers us in the right direction and reinforces our shared goal of maintaining safe, compliant environments for everyone in our buildings.
Simply put, Jigsaw Life Safety has been one of the best partners we’ve worked with, and we value their continued support and trusted expertise. I would highly recommend them to any organization seeking knowledgeable, reliable, and safety-focused life safety consulting services.

My role at TERVA spans many different service lines including Architecture, Engineering, Project Management and Strategic Advisory. Andy and Alex at Jigsaw have provided critical support to our different teams and have made our professional lives easier. Our project management and architecture teams lean on their code consulting support, while Jigsaw is a trusted partner for our engineering teams through their fire protection and plumbing engineering services. Both of our companies seem to have been born from similar DNA – we are hardworking, entrepreneurial, and problem solving when it comes to executing our client’s visions and solving complex problems.

Finding a Fire Protection Engineering and design company is no small feat. The right one will be the backbone of any high-stakes fire protection project.
Jigsaw helps bridge the gap between complex life safety codes and practical field installation. My work with Jigsaw Life Safety means having a strategic partner who ensures that every hydraulic calculation is precise and every system layout is both cost-effective and done properly. While NFPA codes can often be difficult to navigate, working with Jigsaw guarantees my drawings will be in full compliance. At Jigsaw Life Safety you are not just getting stamped plans, you are getting technical, professional and well thought out drawings that will not only stand up to rigorous inspections but provide our clients with quality life safety.

I recently worked with Jigsaw Life Safety on a complex fire alarm panel replacement project spanning multiple buildings, and I couldn’t be more pleased with the results. From start to finish, their team demonstrated exceptional professionalism and technical expertise.
Andrew Shanahan was instrumental in the success of this project. He coordinated the work across all our buildings seamlessly, ensuring minimal disruption to our operations while maintaining the highest safety standards. His knowledge of fire alarm systems and code requirements was impressive, and he took the time to walk us through each phase of the project, answering our questions and addressing any concerns promptly.
The complexity of replacing panels across multiple buildings could have been overwhelming, but Jigsaw Life Safety managed everything efficiently. They met all deadlines, maintained clear communication throughout, and ensured each installation was completed to specification. The final systems are reliable and fully compliant with all applicable codes.
I highly recommend Jigsaw Life Safety for anyone needing fire alarm services or life safety engineering work. Their combination of technical skill, project management expertise, and customer service is hard to beat.

I just wanted to reach out and let you know that everyone I’ve spoken with had great things to say about the class and demonstration. They found the information very valuable and especially appreciated the trailer demonstration, which really helped bring everything discussed in the classroom together.
Alex, you and your group did a phenomenal job, from the communication and coordination leading up to the training all the way through the class delivery. Your preparation and execution were outstanding, and it definitely showed.
Thank you again to everyone involved for putting together such a great training experience!
