Fire & Life Safety Compliance

Edmonton Fire Rescue Services is implementing Life Safety Inspection Vault (LIV), a modern inspection, testing, and maintenance (ITM) and compliance management platform built specifically for fire departments, to strengthen fire and life safety compliance across our jurisdiction.

LIV serves as the centralized system of record for inspection reports, deficiencies, and permits, improving visibility, accountability, and follow-up across regulated properties.
