If your interested in 3pc for passive fire protection, try looking at the ASFP site.

It doesn't stand for anything now it is just a logo but derived from FIRe Accreditation Scheme.

Check out http://www.warringtoncertification.com/firas.html
All my responses only apply to England and Wales and they are an overview of the subject, hopefully it will point you in the right direction and always treat with caution.
