Fire Planning Software

Bosch has introduced version 4.1 of its fire alarm planning software. Planning fire alarm projects is a challenging business, since it needs to include different parties at different planning stages along the value chain but also has to provide quick answers when it comes to initial budgeting and calculation.

With the latest version, the company has updated its planning software for fire alarm systems as a central comprehensive solution for all the parties involved: architects, planners, consultants and system integrators. Version 4.1 now includes the functionality of the Fire System Designer (FSD) – a tool to layout and design fire detection systems in detail – and thus also reduces the software requirements for integrators to just one unified platform. This easy-to-use program supports the user to create a complete tender and to estimate prices. It also enables to precisely design the fire alarm system, including the allocation of peripherals on different loops in accordance with the actual topology, while a complete plausibility check ensures that every project detail is considered.
