Fire Management Software for Rapid Emergency Response & Safety

Integrated fire safety management when every second counts. Sky-Walker's Fire Management Software (FMS) centralizes fire detection, alarm handling, suppression system control, and emergency coordination. Detect threats rapidly, activate automated responses, and protect occupants and assets.

What is Fire Management ?

FMS is a system that will allow you to design, to manage, to plan, and to coordinate fire safety procedures in their entirety. This intends at preventing and reducing potential fire hazards. Thanks to a Fire Management Software, your fire related systems such as fire detection system, fire protection system, and fire alarm system, will be able to be connected and integrated to different subsystems.


In the event of an incident, the fire detection systems will detect the fire with a heat detector and the information will be transmitted directly to the FMS which will locate the fire. An alarm will be activated to alert the floor and it will make itself visible through a visual and audible alarm on the FMS. The fire protection system is automatically activated causing sprinklers and gas to trigger automatically. The operator sees the automatic activation on the FMS interface and can immediately contact the fire department by telephone.


With FMS all fire subsystems can be integrated, but to have better security it is a better practice to integrate FMS with other security systems such as CCTV to have footage of fire events and access control data to know who entered and left the building. All this is possible by connecting all subsystems in a centralized PSIM platform.

Why Fire Management Software is Critical

Detect & Respond Instantly

Automated fire detection and response systems activate in seconds sprinklers, alarms, evacuation protocols when threats are identified.

Unified Emergency Control

Centralized platform manages all fire systems from a single interface detection, suppression, alarms, video, and coordination.

Real-Time Visibility

Operators have complete situational awareness of all fire-related systems, events, and response actions as they occur.

Coordinated Safety Response

Automated workflows ensure consistent, rapid response procedures alerting occupants, activating suppression, and notifying emergency services.

Covers regulatory requirements and documentation

Speed & Automation

Emphasizes rapid response, reduced reaction times, and coordinated workflows

Safety & Protection

Highlights occupant safety and asset protection

Who is involved in the use of a fire management?

The fire management software is a platform that will allow you to perform a wide variety of actions. Mainly, it is the operators who will ensure fire safety, however the safety manager and the management team can receive information related to the fire in order to take the necessary measures.

Operators

The operator in charge of fire safety will be able to manage the systems, ensure the safety of the inhabitants by alerting them and also set up actions in coordination with the responders to solve the fire as quickly as possible.

Security managers

Its mission is mainly to set up the processes, whether manual or automatic, to manage the various fires. Indeed, the processes (workflows) will allow to establish actions in a very organized way in order to respond most efficiently to the fire.



Board members

The management team will mainly measure the impact of actions on the safety of the building and take the necessary measures to optimise safety, in cooperation with the safety manager. Indeed, safety in a building is one of the most important elements and it is essential to be able to make improvements to improve the results of the actions.

The usage of fire management software

With an FMS System, you will have the ability to manage fire safety and fight or prevent a fire. The subsystems can be connected to each other so that a complete optimization takes place. Elements related to identified safety such as fire extinguishers or alarm boxes are immediately visible in the form of pictograms in the FMS. So, the FMS is used as a UAE (Unité d'aide à l'exploitation).


The FMS System is particularly essential in buildings such as hospitals or warehouses, where a very large number of people are present and where the risk is particularly high.

Sky-Walker FMS: Interface & Customization

The fire management software is mainly composed of 2 screens. On the first screen you will be able to see your building in its entirety with the fire management systems specific to fire safety such as the fire detection system, the fire detection heads, the smoke detectors, the sprinklers, etc... The alarms will be able to be visualized in direct on this screen; you will also be able to decide on the organisation for viewing your cameras.
The second screen will mainly allow you to intervene on the fire, with in particular procedure sheets that your operators will fill in to intervene efficiently on the fire. Similarly, you will be able to view the fire scene in real time with a camera wall consisting of one, two or even more cameras.


Both interfaces of the two screens are 100% customisable, whether it is the fire safety systems with their icons, the number of buildings and floors, the manual or automatic processes, the number of cameras, etc...

Frequently Asked Questions

  • Is Fire Management Software required by law?

    FMS is not always required by law, but it's strongly recommended best practice. Building codes increasingly require integrated fire management systems for large facilities, high-rise buildings, and facilities with high occupancy or hazardous materials.

  • How quickly does FMS respond to fire threats?

    Automated response is virtually instantaneous—detection triggers suppression systems within 1-2 seconds of sensor activation. Manual operator actions can add 10-30 seconds depending on fire severity and facility size.

  • Can operators override automated suppression?

    Yes. Operators can override automated responses for legitimate reasons (false alarms, manual system testing). However, override capabilities are restricted to authorized personnel to prevent accidental disablement.

  • How often must FMS be tested?

    Fire systems require regular testing—typically quarterly for detection systems, annually for suppression systems. Sky-Walker FMS provides testing utilities and documentation for compliance.

  • What training is required for operators?

    Entelec provides comprehensive training covering fire system operation, emergency procedures, interface navigation, and coordination with emergency services. Most operators are proficient within 1-2 days of training.

  • How is incident data used after a fire?

    FMS records all fire events, detection times, suppression activation times, occupant alerts, and operator actions. This data supports incident investigation, procedure improvement, and compliance documentation.

  • Does FMS integrate with emergency services?

    FMS can automatically notify emergency services via telephone, radio, or text. The system provides emergency services with facility information, fire location, occupancy status, and building access details.
