What PREVENT does
PREVENT, doing business as REMEDI8® (legal entity REMEDI8®), is a U.S. national provider of passive fire protection and life safety compliance services headquartered at 8245 Nieman Road, Lenexa, Kansas, operating under parent MBT (Midwest Business Technology). The firm delivers inspection, repair, replacement, and relabeling services for fire-rated doors, fire and smoke dampers, and fire barriers, alongside life safety consulting (ADA assessments, egress assessments, emergency evacuation plans, mock surveys, OSHA inspections, ligature risk assessments, security vulnerability assessments). Its anchor offering, the REMEDI8 Total Compliance® program, provides end-to-end compliance coverage for healthcare facilities, with reports aligned to CMS, The Joint Commission, DNV, and HFAP standards and a stated pathway to NFPA compliance.
The company is led by former Joint Commission surveyors and deploys a workforce of over 200 certified technicians (including inspectors certified through the International Fire Door Inspector Association) across all 50 states. Operations are differentiated by multi-state contractor licensing (AZ, CA, FL, NV, OR, NC, LA, WA) and accreditations from UL, Hilti, 3M, STI, DHI, FDAI, CFDAI, and ANAB. Underlying technology consists of proprietary reporting and asset-tracking software that produces inspection-ready documentation and supports a customer client portal; a separate e-commerce channel sells compliance products such as the Mobile Containment Unit, Door Clearance Solution, fire door hardware, fire door caulk, inspection tools, and labels. A certified remote door inspection option extends service reach.
Revenue mechanics are predominantly professional services on custom-quote, multi-year contracts, supplemented by hardware/product sales through the online portal. The GTM motion is enterprise field sales targeting healthcare (primary), education, government, correctional, commercial, warehouse/industrial, retail, and entertainment verticals. Sister companies Solution Containment & Access and Facilities Management Solutions extend the adjacent service footprint. The company self-describes as one of the largest full-service providers for fire-rated doors and one of the largest compliance networks in the nation, serving thousands of customers. Revenue, funding, and ownership-equity figures are not publicly disclosed.

- Koorsen Fire & Security: Regional/national fire protection and life safety services company with inspection, installation, and monitoring offerings. Comparable as a service-led fire/life safety provider with similar compliance positioning across commercial and industrial verticals.
- Fire & Life Safety America (FLSA): National provider of fire sprinkler and life safety services including inspection, testing, and maintenance. Comparable as a recurring service model targeting healthcare and commercial accounts with bundled inspection contracts.
- Jensen Hughes: Global fire protection engineering and life safety consulting firm with deep healthcare facility expertise.

Broad incumbents

Comparable in providing full-service inspection, installation, and maintenance of fire doors, dampers, and sprinklers, but operates at much greater scale and across many fire protection categories.
Emerging players
