Fire Protection System Inspection, Testing, & Maintenance (Effective October 15, 2021)

All fire protection systems in the City of Sugar Land are required by the fire code to be inspected, tested, and maintained on regular intervals. Please see attached schedule. The purpose of these inspections is to ensure the system will operate properly in the event of an incident, ensuring a safe environment by minimizing the risk of life and property loss.

City of Sugar Land has contracted with BRYCER, LLC to help manage the fire protection systems inspection, testing, and maintenance program. All contractors who perform these services on fire protection systems are required to electronically submit all compliant and non-compliant reports to the department via www.thecomplianceengine.com. Contractors are required to submit test results to the City of Sugar Land on behalf of their customers.
