***PROGRESS RAIL -REPLACEMENT OF FAILING LOCO SHOP FIRE PANEL - MARCH 2025*** **Leading Fire Services are pleased to submit for your consideration our proposal for repairs identified during the recent inspection of the fire protection equipment.** *** As previously advised, this Fire Indicator Panel is well parts its serviceable life cycle and no spare parts are available for this system. Presently, the system is indicating charger low and battery low fault statuses. This indicates that the internal power supply unit for this Fire Panel is failing and cannot output the required voltage to keep the system in a stable condition. If this continues to degrade, the output voltage will decrease to a level that may trigger unwanted Fire Alarm activations and ads a result, will force the attendance of Q.F.E.S (Fire Brigade). Due to this failing power supply unit and the unavailability of replacement parts, this Fire Indicator Panel requires urgent replacement.*** **In our quotation, we have allowed for the following works;** ** * Site attendance, disconnection of all field cabling on Fire Panel and removal for disposal.** ** * Installation of new Pertronics F220 Fire Indicator Panel with future capability of Networkability to main FIP.** ** * Test and commission on completion.** ***Please note that after discussions with our Supplier, they have advised that they will still honor the original amount quoted back in July 2024 only until 31st March 2025.

If this is not required, this cost will be removed from the final invoice.*** **EXTRACT FROM BUILDING FIRE SAFETY REGULATION 2008** **The Building Fire Safety Regulation 2008, Part 5 Prescribed fire safety installations, Division 3 Obligations of occupiers, 54 Maintenance of prescribed fire safety installations Part 4 states that:** **(4) The occupier of the building must ensure the repair is carried out or the corrective action is taken no later than 1 month after the maintenance of the installation was carried out, unless the occupier has a reasonable excuse.** ***Examples of a reasonable excuse— • No appropriately qualified person was available to attend the occupier’s premises to carry out the repair or take the corrective action because of the remoteness of the building’s location. • The repair or corrective action was not able to be finished because of the complexity of the work involved or delay in obtaining parts required for the repair or corrective action.*** Unless specifically noted above, or stated/included within our Scope of Works, the following inclusions, Exclusions, Notes and Conditions will apply: INCLUSIONS: • Labour during Leading Fire Services normal working hours (7.00am to 4.00pm Mon to Fri, excluding Public Holidays).
