The Western Fire Chiefs Association (WFCA) is excited to announce a strategic partnership with The Compliance Engine (TCE), powered by Brycer LLC. Code compliance is a critical component of Fire Prevention in terms of reducing risk for our communities and fellow firefighters. In light of the greater demands for all of us to do more for life safety with fewer resources, we, of the Western Fire Chiefs Association, are confident this innovative service, which is zero cost to AHJs, will revolutionize your approach to code compliance and risk reduction.

The Compliance Engine is a simple, internet based tool for Fire Prevention Bureaus to track and drive code compliance, reduce false alarm activity, and provide a safer community. It provides a secure cloud environment in which third party contractors that inspect, test, and maintain fire protection systems, can submit their reports via Brycer’s web portal direct to the Authority Having Jurisdiction, facilitating a more efficient review, tracking, and follow-up process with occupants to correct deficiencies and maintain systems. Brycer also provides a proactive service, in addition to the web-based technology, that includes hard and soft copy notifications to help increase testing and maintenance activity in a given jurisdiction. The end result is a comprehensive and accurate aggregation of data around which buildings have what types of systems, when they were last tested, and if there are any open deficiencies that could jeopardize their successful deployment in the event of an incident. With The Compliance Engine, Fire Prevention Bureaus will be better equipped in their mission to drive 100% code compliance with life safety laws.

As a result of this strategic partnership, WFCA wishes to help Brycer increase awareness of their technology and service. The purpose of this agreement is to ensure access to the latest technology benefiting fire officials.
