Secure:
Data is stored and served from LAN Control Systems hosted secure server. Robust technology with instant automatic failover and redundant SAN storage provide a 99.99% availability. Frequent backups of data are made automatically to two differently located servers.
Proof of Testing: Producing reports based on Fire Alarm testing has always been challenging. Service & maintenance companies have different methods of testing and producing evidence of what has been tested; engineer hand written dockets, print‐outs from control panels, site drawings with ticks or highlights against each device, coloured stickers attached to each device and scanned bar‐code stickers. These methods are prone to inaccuracy and don’t necessarily provide conclusive evidence that particular testing has been carried out. Nimbus records the actual Fire Alarm control panel activity, recording specific details of device status and identity information.
Infinite Log: Many Fire Alarm control panels have a limited internal memory to log activity. It is not
unusual for a Fire Alarm system to have more detection devices and manual call points than the internal memory can record collectively. Fire Alarm control panel printers are temperamental, prone to jamming and running out of paper. Print‐outs are not easy to read, provide limited information and difficult to store, archive and recall. Nimbus logging is infinite, enabling reports to be generated at any time based on flexible search criteria.
Accessible: Nimbus is accessible from any Internet connected web browser enabled device.

Service Managers: Utilising Nimbus as your Fire Alarm service management tool you can:
• Proactive & Predictive service & maintenance o Check the system log before you attend site o Check activity/contamination/compensation levels o See the percentage of testing carried out in the annual
service period • Offer clients higher service level agreements
o Client transparency ‐ provide User access and notifications to Nimbus o Generate detailed reports o Automate engineer response to system notifications
• Check the reported problem remotely first o Evaluate first and plan accordingly
• Paperless system accessible from most locations o Generate reports at any time from any location o Minimise administration costs
• Single engineer testing/commissioning ‐ virtually real‐time descriptive test data providing confirmation to engineer whilst testing via SMS/Email/Web
• Attach and Upload documents to the service record o Installation, Commissioning, Certification, Service and Maintenance
documentation • Attach and Upload control panel configuration files
o No more misplaced disks or USB memory sticks • Add comments to each device in the testing log • Measure engineer performance • Measure detection/system performance • Schedule service visits and receive pending email notification
Facilities & Estate Manager: A new and creative way to manage and monitor your fire alarm systems Nimbus offers higher level of management than has previously been possible.
• Have confidence that the Fire Alarm is maintained correctly • Monitor and measure contractor performance to get best value • Compliance with BS5839/EN54 service requirements • Compliance with Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 maintenance
requirements • Independent proof of testing • Integrate different systems into one platform • Electronic total life history • Create an Asset log • Monitor the product life cycle • Integrate data to CAFM and Internal systems • Extend the life and functionality of existing systems
As a cloud based system Nimbus offers many advantages over conventional management systems
• Reduce cost o Paying incrementally reduces capital expenditure
• Reduced I.T. overhead o No specific internal hardware required o No specific software required o Scalable o Future proof
• Increase administration performance • Automated • Reduced carbon footprint
o Less travelling o Less hardware/software/paper/consumables
• Flexible o Accessible from anywhere o Share data with colleagues
• Infinite Storage o Unlimited Log
