Good Morning, all,

 

Asset Management Services has contracted with Siemens Industry, Inc. to install a program to monitor your facility's Fire Alarm System.

 

** Project Overview: **

 

The Siemens Fire Manager is a cloud-based application and web portal that provides fire safety professionals with a centralized view of all connected Siemens fire protection systems. It offers real-time status, remote monitoring, maintenance planning, and faster response capabilities.

 

** Who is responsible for this work?

Orange County Asset Management Services, Capital Division, has partnered with Siemens Industry, Inc.

 

** Work Schedule:**

     

      The fire manager device and programming are slated to occur on the following dates:

 

      Hillsborough Commons – Tuesday, September 23 to Wednesday, September 24, 2025

 

      Southern Human Services – Monday, September 29 to Tuesday, September 30, 2025

 

**Why Are You Being Notified? ** 

  • Siemens Industry, Inc. will have a certified and trained fire alarm specialist on-site to install a device inside your fire alarm panel.
  • This specialist will also program the device at the fire alarm panel, where most of the work will be conducted.
  • Once the installation and programming are complete, the only work not at the fire alarm panel will be testing the devices. At least 10% of the fire alarm devices must be retested per fire code requirements.

 

**How Can You Help? ** 

  • For your safety, if the fire alarm sounds and lights flash, please exit the building unless you have received communication that we are testing the devices.
  • Please notify staff about the work before the start date. If you require assistance from AMS for notifications, please don’t hesitate to contact us.

 

**Will this impact the daily operations of the building? **

  • This work should not impact your daily operations.
  • The only areas impacted will be where the Fire Alarm Control Panel is located.

 

 

**Questions? ** 

If you have questions about the work, don't hesitate to get in touch with Angel Barnes at aba...@orangecountync.gov or 919.245.2628 or Jim Breakey at jbre...@orangecountync.gov or 919.794.1571

 

 

 

Thank you, 

 

Angel
