The Fire Watch workflow is used to request fire-watch coverage when a fire protection system or function is impaired.
Submit a Request
To request coverage, complete and submit the form below.
Please ensure you have the following information ready before submitting:
- Requestor & Location: Requestor name, contact information, Project ID (PID), building, and affected area.
- Impairment Details: System or function impaired, description of impairment, specific patrol instructions, and any special hazards.
- Schedule & Frequency: Selected coverage schedule (recurring or specific intermittent dates) and required patrol frequency.

Important: Submitting a request does not constitute approval or authorize fire-watch activities. Coverage is not activated until all required reviews are complete.
Review & Approval Workflow
- Office of the Fire Marshal Review: Technical fire-watch requirements are reviewed and approved.
- Security Operations Review: Final operational approval is completed by Security Operations, after which the assignment is routed to the Site Operations Center (SOC) for coverage.
