Our Approach & Philosophy
Collaborative Design
No two buildings are alike. Every project varies in size, layout, and code requirements, so we plan each system with care. Our collaboration spans across trades, design partners, and clients to deliver fire protection solutions built for every unique space.
Team & Training
Our biggest asset is our people. We invest heavily in training, certification, and ongoing education. Across our fire protection discipline, project managers, designers, and field staff have deep expertise and work as a cohesive unit.
Safety First Culture
From day one, Duggan’s motto has been “safety first.” It is more than a saying — it’s the foundation of how we plan, build, and deliver every project. From small retrofits to large high-rises, safety guides every decision to protect people and property.
