Consulting
Assess conditions before decisions get expensive
Use consulting work to understand current conditions, practical constraints, and the real maintenance implications before design or procurement moves too far.
Independent facade access consulting
Facade Access Consulting and Fall Protection Engineering for New and Existing Buildings
Highline Consulting advises building owners, architects, developers, and property teams on facade access, fall protection, OPOS, and project-specific documentation for work at height. Every recommendation is shaped by worker safety, code compliance, and the real operating demands of the building.

Core services
One firm for consulting, design, and documentation
Some projects need an early assessment. Others need coordinated design support or the documents required to operate and maintain the building safely. Highline helps clients move from uncertainty to a workable path with clearer scope and next steps.
Design
Integrate access strategy into the building, not around it
Design support helps teams coordinate facade access and fall protection with architecture, operations, and long-term building use while there is still room to do it well.
Documentation
Turn strategy into operational documents teams can use
Documentation work supports safe maintenance, clearer owner accountability, and project-specific records that can hold up in the field and during review.
Why teams bring Highline in
Independent judgment matters when access decisions affect safety, operations, and owner exposure
Facade access and fall protection are not standalone add-ons. They affect roof planning, maintenance reality, contractor safety, liability exposure, and the long-term maintainability of the building itself.
Highline's role is to help teams make those decisions earlier and with better technical clarity, whether the work starts with a survey, a new building, a retrofit need, or a documentation requirement such as OPOS.
Led by Sean Branecki, Principal and Cal/OSHA-approved SIT Surveyor (SIT License #40), Highline gives clients direct senior involvement and independent, manufacturer-neutral judgment throughout the engagement.
Where projects usually start
Common ways building owners, architects, developers, and project teams enter the work
Projects usually arrive through one of a few predictable paths: early coordination on a new building, retrofit questions on an existing property, a broader California search for the right consultant, or a need for operating documentation and defensible procedures.
Design
New construction projects
Coordinate facade access and fall protection early enough to protect both design intent and long-term maintenance needs.
Design
Existing building retrofit
Review existing conditions and define a retrofit path for buildings that need safer, more workable access systems.
Regional
California project support
Support teams looking for facade access guidance before the project has narrowed into a single deliverable or service page.
Documentation
OPOS and operational records
Translate strategy into operating procedures, plans of service, and project records owners and operators can rely on.
Selected clients and project teams
Trusted by building owners, developers, property teams, and stakeholders responsible for complex buildings
Highline's work has supported developers, ownership groups, property teams, and project stakeholders across commercial, residential, mixed-use, and institutional buildings.
Next step
Start with the building, the phase, and the access requirements
Whether the need is tied to a new development, an existing building, or a specific documentation requirement, Highline can help define the right scope and the right next move.
