  - Responsibilities include a mix of those that were required by previous employers. Royal Group is the first company I have worked for that has NICET-trained technicians, other than myself. The TQPs will still occasionally consult with me about a code-requirement or some other fire-related issue since I have been working in this field the longest and have the highest NICET status. - Use “Building Reports” software for all of the annual Fire Alarm System test & inspections - Created a Google-Sheets doc for use by the other TQPs that is sourced from recent editions of NFPA-70, NFPA-72, NFPA-101, and ADAAG. This doc helps a TQP to quickly locate specific code-references for commonly-found fire alarm violations. - Produced a Google-Drive doc that the other TQPs can use to quickly ascertain the essential fire alarm requirements for any given Occupancy under VT’s amended NFPA-101 code-standard. This document essentially removes the language in NFPA-101 and the State of Vermont Fire Safety Rules that has no bearing on a given Occupancy’s Fire Alarm requirements. Show less
