# Creating a new assessment

Creating a new assessment

*Use the RiskBase app, on your web-browser or the app from the Google Play or Apple App store, to create assessments.*

*Assessments are always created on a property; either search for and download an existing property or create a new one.*

**Creating a new assessment:**

1. Select a downloaded property.
2. On the left hand side, select the compliance type that the assessment will come under - for example, a Fire Risk Assessment will come under the compliance type ‘Fire Summary’.
3. Select an assessment type (E.g., Fire Risk Assessment).
4. Click **Create Fire Risk Assessment**.
5. Choose a template (E.g., commercial, Type 1, Type 2 etc.).

The template will open and the assessment can now be created.
