Managing Fire Departments (ROE/ISC Staff Guide)

The HLS system allows you to manage contact information for local fire departments within your region. By maintaining these contacts, you ensure that the correct fire department personnel receive automated system notifications regarding facility inspections.

⚠️ Prerequisite: A fire department must be linked to at least one facility within your region before it will appear in this management list. (See the Managing Districts and Facilities guide to link a fire department to a building).

Step-by-Step Instructions

1. Access the Fire Department List: From your main dashboard, click the Manage Fire Department button.

2. Select the Fire Department: You will see a list of all fire departments currently associated with facilities in your region. Click on the name of the fire department you want to update.

3. Add Fire Department Staff: On the department’s detail page, you can add multiple staff members and their respective email addresses.

Why Add Multiple Contacts?

Unlike the legacy system which only allowed one contact per building, the new management system supports adding as many fire department staff members as needed. Every contact added to this list will automatically receive notifications from the HLS system whenever you send out inspection-related communications.
