About Us
S.C. Fire Consulting, Inc. is an independent forensic fire investigation and code analysis company serving Texas, Louisiana, Arkansas, Oklahoma, and Mississippi. The company is owned and operated by a fire service professional with 35 years of experience in the fire service and more than 30 years of experience in origin-and-cause investigations and fire code compliance in both the public and private sectors.
S.C. stands for "Systematic Conclusions".
In fire investigations, systematic conclusions are reached through a structured, evidence-based process that ensures reliability, defensibility, and consistency in determining the origin, cause, and development of a fire.
Systematic conclusions in fire investigations rely on a combination of the scientific method, deductive reasoning, and, when applicable, systems thinking. These approaches ensure that fire-related decisions are based on rigorous, repeatable, and contextually sound analysis, enhancing both safety and accountability.
