Let’s discuss who should be responsible for conducting monthly inspections of this company’s fire alarm system I think it should be the security department that conducts inspections, while the instrumentation department is responsible for the maintenance and repair of the fire alarm system. If inspection, maintenance, and repairs are all carried out by the instrumentation department, then no faults will ever be detected! ! Check it yourself!
Different companies have different management approaches; it depends on what the regulations are; In our company, such matters are managed by the safety management department, but the actual monthly inspections are carried out by external contractors ; Also, I’m not quite in agreement with having inspections and maintenance carried out by the same department, as it may not be effective ; It depends on your specific regulations to determine what management methods to use.
Yes, different companies have different management styles! It can also be put bluntly as a “legacy of history”* habit! I also heard that this fire could be attributed to electrical maintenance and management!
If it needs to be checked, then check it – what’s the big deal? Indeed, as mentioned above, it is usually the electrical engineering department that is responsible for maintenance.
The fire alarm system maintenance company is responsible for routine inspections and maintenance; fire safety inspections are carried out once a year. There are no employees in the security department or no maintenance staff, so they are unable to conduct regular tests
