About this file
This document is a Johnson Controls Fire Protection onsite protocol for work performed at the Orange County Convention Center in Orange County, Florida. The protocol establishes standardized procedures for four types of fire protection system work: installation, program downloading, pretesting, and final testing with the Authority Having Jurisdiction (AHJ). Each procedure requires Johnson Controls to obtain approval from the OCCC Project Management Team prior to commencing work and mandates coordination with the prime contract holder, OCCC Capital Planning, and OCCC Security/Life Safety personnel. For program downloads, pretesting, and final testing procedures, Johnson Controls must deploy at least two technicians, with one positioned at the main control panel (TSW) and additional technicians performing work at specific nodes or devices. All procedures require Johnson Controls to document the fire alarm system's status at the beginning and end of work, including counts of alarms, troubles, supervisory signals, and bypasses, with work considered complete only when the system is returned to the same or better condition than when work commenced.
The protocol mandates that Johnson Controls notify OCCC Security to place the system in test mode for the duration of work activities and requires the security team to remove the system from test mode prior to the technician's departure. Johnson Controls must disable and subsequently reenable any system points affected by work, and must turn on and off any necessary bypasses in accordance with the specific procedure being performed. Upon completion of all work, Johnson Controls must submit a signed debrief report to the prime contract holder that documents the project authorization, specific work performed, initial and final system conditions, and any explanation for variances in system status. The debrief report must include the CIP onsite point of contact name, identify any nodes or TSWs affected by work, and confirm that affected nodes have been reinitialized to restore the system to its original condition. The prime contract holder assumes responsibility for notifying OCCC Capital Planning that work is complete.
