CONSULTING
The Overwatch Standard
At Overwatch Fire Protection, we represent a new era of life-safety management. While we began as an independent consultancy, we have evolved into a full-spectrum service provider. We combine the technical precision of a licensed contractor with the unbiased scrutiny of a professional advocate.
Our mission is to eliminate the "blank check" culture of the fire protection industry. By self-performing preventative maintenance and repairs, we ensure that every wrench turned is necessary, every report is accurate, and every asset is maintained to the highest NFPA standards.
Service Powered by Advocacy
Most service providers are incentivized by repair volume. We are incentivized by your compliance. Whether we are acting as your primary service vendor or providing independent Owner Representation, our priority is lowering your liability and protecting your capital budget.
We bridge the gap between property managers, Fire Marshals, and service providers. Our team adheres to the highest standards set by NICET and local fire codes, providing a digital audit trail that ensures you are "Marshal-Ready" 365 days a year.
Mickey Hilderbrand
Overwatch Fire Protection Management was founded by Mickey Hilderbrand, a veteran with nearly 20 years of experience in the Puget Sound fire protection industry. From fabrication and field tech work to high-level management, Mickey has seen every side of the business.
Mickey founded OFPM after realizing that property managers were often left at the mercy of inconsistent vendors and "hidden" costs. He built Overwatch to be the solution he couldn't find in the market: a company that provides direct, high-quality service backed by an uncompromising commitment to the ownerβs best interest.
