3 Questions to Ask Before You Hire a Fire Safety Vendor

Clear, timely communication is essential to keeping your buildings safe, compliant, and running smoothly. As you evaluate fire safety partners, these questions can help you assess how well a vendor aligns with your property management needs.


1. Do you have a clear process for how and when service updates are communicated?

Knowing what’s scheduled—and what’s been completed—shouldn’t take multiple emails or phone calls. Ask vendors about their protocols for scheduling, reminders, and reporting.

At Integrity, we:

  • Manage recurring service schedules proactively so you don’t have to.
  • Confirm appointments well in advance to support access planning.
  • Provide timely post-service summaries and inspection documentation to keep your records organized and your team informed.

2. How quickly do you receive responses during emergencies or after inspections?

When urgent issues arise or deficiencies are discovered, fast follow-through is critical. You should know what to expect in terms of response times and how quote or repair requests are handled.

At Integrity, we:

  • Have technicians on-call 24/7 for emergency needs.
  • Prioritize quote turnaround for deficiencies that impact compliance.
  • Keep lines of communication open to ensure you’re never left wondering what’s next.

3. Is the vendor’s communication style compatible with how your team works?

Every property team operates differently. It’s important that your fire protection partner can adapt to your communication preferences and provide access to knowledgeable support when needed.

At Integrity, we:

  • Communicate primarily by phone and email—direct, simple, and effective.
  • Provide access to a responsive administrative team who can assist with scheduling, documentation, and general questions.
  • Strive to make communication seamless, so you can stay focused on your operations.

✅ Bottom Line:

Fire protection isn’t just about compliance—it’s about confidence. When communication is clear, responsive, and proactive, your entire team benefits.  Let’s take the guesswork out of fire protection— start the conversation today.

The professionalism and care shown by everybody my team and I interact with is outstanding. They are always quick to respond, very on top of regular scheduling, and immensely informative with my team, allowing us to maintain our equipment and keep everyone in the loop.
