Fire Protection Plan Review in Singapore

Fire Protection Plan Review forFSSD Submission in Singapore

Fire Protection Plan review is the system-side review of proposed works that may affect fire protection and FP / MV interfaces. A&A Projects coordinates early checks for automatic fire alarm / detection systems, automatic sprinkler systems, fixed automatic fire extinguishing / total flooding systems, emergency voice communication, kitchen exhaust interfaces, and other affected systems before the appointed Qualified Person (QP) prepares the submission route.

  • Review affected FP / MV systems against the prevailing SCDF Fire Code
  • Coordinate project facts with the appointed QP, fire contractor, landlord, consultants, and team
  • Useful for fit-outs, F&B works, ceiling changes, system alterations, and renovation planning

Fire Protection Review

Fire protection items A&A Projects coordinates

Fire Protection Plan review is usually about system impact, interfaces, and QP-ready information rather than architectural layout alone. Early review helps the project team understand what may need QP-led FP / MV submission before system works move too far.

Detection and Alarm

Alarm device and detector coordination

We check whether proposed layout and ceiling works may affect detector positions, alarm devices, emergency voice communication, and system interfaces.

  • detector and alarm device locations
  • emergency voice communication where relevant
  • existing building system limitations
Sprinkler Systems

Automatic sprinkler coordination

We review how new rooms, partitions, ceilings, storage layouts, and usage assumptions may affect automatic sprinkler coverage and related system changes.

  • sprinkler coverage affected by partitions or ceiling works
  • sprinkler head relocation or additional sprinkler points where relevant
  • coordination between fire contractor, QP, landlord, and project team
Total Flooding Systems

Fixed extinguishing and F&B interfaces

We flag items involving fixed automatic fire extinguishing / total flooding systems, kitchen exhaust, and related interfaces that need early coordination.

  • fixed automatic fire extinguishing / total flooding systems
  • kitchen exhaust and F&B fire safety interfaces
  • coordination with QP, fire contractor, landlord, and project team
Process

How Fire Protection Plan review usually moves.

We keep the process practical: collect the project facts, check affected FP / MV systems, align drawings and interfaces, then prepare the team for the QP-led submission stage.

1
Step 1

Share project facts and system drawings

Send the intended use, scope of works, layout, reflected ceiling plan, fire protection drawings, landlord comments, and known system references.

Start with current project facts.
2
Step 2

Review affected FP / MV systems

We assess whether the works affect fire alarm / detection, automatic sprinkler coverage, emergency voice communication, kitchen exhaust, or fixed automatic fire extinguishing / total flooding systems.

Clarify the system concerns early.
3
Step 3

Coordinate drawings and interfaces

We identify what should be clarified, corrected, or prepared with the appointed QP, fire contractor, landlord, consultants, and project team.

Organise the next set of documents.

Step 4

Prepare for the QP-led submission stage

With the route clearer, the team can move into CORENET e-Submission preparation and SCDF follow-up with fewer avoidable gaps.

Move into the next stage prepared.
FAQ

Fire Protection Plan submission questions

Common questions before coordinating automatic fire alarm / detection systems, automatic sprinkler systems, total flooding systems, kitchen exhaust, and related FP / MV interfaces.

Scope

What does Fire Protection Plan review cover?

It covers system-related fire safety items such as automatic fire alarm / detection systems, automatic sprinkler systems, fixed automatic fire extinguishing / total flooding systems, emergency voice communication, and related FP / MV interfaces.

Coordination

Who is usually involved in Fire Protection Plan coordination?

The project team may need to coordinate with the appointed QP, fire contractor, landlord, mechanical or electrical consultants, and other parties depending on the system impact.

Fit-outs

Do fit-outs affect sprinklers and alarms?

Yes. New partitions, ceiling works, room changes, and F&B layouts can affect detector positions, sprinkler coverage, suppression zones, alarm interfaces, kitchen exhaust, and related system assumptions.

Documents

What should we send first?

Send the layout plan, reflected ceiling plan if available, known fire protection drawings, photos of affected areas, landlord comments, and any known system changes.

Next Step

Send the layout, reflected ceiling plan, and known system changes.

We will help review what fire protection items should be coordinated before submission planning moves ahead.
