    Study Notes

    Fire Safety Management - Premises Emergency Data

    • Learning Outcomes: Learners will be able to outline the CD Division Contingency Plan, describe the essential Premises Emergency Data (PED) to be provided, and state the procedure for submitting and updating PED data.

    Introduction

    • Fire Safety Manager (FSM) Role: The FSM assists the Singapore Civil Defence Force (SCDF) by providing comprehensive building information to support effective emergency response.
    • Building-Specific Risks: Different buildings have varying levels and types of risks.
    • Data Use: The data enables SCDF Ground/Incident Commanders to make informed decisions regarding fire-fighting equipment and mitigation measures in emergencies.
    • Contingency Planning: The Civil Defence Division (SCDF) creates a Contingency Plan for each building based on the provided data, addressing operational concepts and incident management.
    • FSM Responsibility: The FSM is responsible for preparing the PED.
    • Contingency Plan Details: The first part of the contingency plan is prepared by the CD Division and outlines the concept of operations and overall incident management at the premises.

    Premises Emergency Data (PED)

    • Purpose: The PED contains information needed by the SCDF Incident Commander during an emergency.
    • Data Supplied: The FSM provides data about the building's risk assessment, occupancy, key personnel, emergency response resources, fire risk, and fire protection systems.
    • Format: The information must follow the standard format outlined in Appendix D of the SCDF general guidelines for Emergency Response Procedures (ERP).

    Procedure for Submission of PED

    • Format Distribution: The CD Division HQ provides the PED format to the FSM.
    • Data Completion: FSM fills in all required details of the building.
    • Submission Deadline: The completed PED is submitted to the Division HQ within three months of notification.
    • Annual Revisions: The Division HQ annually requests confirmation of any PED revisions from the FSM.
    • Responsibility: The FSM is responsible to notify the Division HQ of required PED revisions between annual submissions.
    • PED and ERP: The PED is part of the ERP but does not require separate submission of the full ERP to the SCDF.

    Operational Survey

    • Verification: The Division HQ conducts an operational survey within two months of receiving the PED to verify the submitted data.
    • Corrections: Any inaccuracies in the PED will be amended. The FSM then resubmits the amended PED to the relevant Division.
    • Verification Timeframe: The operational survey must be conducted within two months of receiving the PED
