What are the advantages of the iMAP Fireproofing Management System?
The iMAP Fireproofing Management System captures plant, area, and location information; plot plans, floor plans, and detailed descriptions; and geotagged photos. Auditors identify, record, and evaluate the condition of existing fireproofing materials. Auditors can also identify insurance discount opportunities and include best practices of appropriate fireproofing manufacturers. This inventory serves not only as the basis of the audit, but also as a valuable document management system, storing types, condition, and location of all fireproofing material.
iMAP Software produces a comprehensive audit, measuring the facility against applicable industry and regulatory standards, facility fireproofing guidelines, and recommended best practices of fireproofing material manufacturers. Audits are produced quickly, since industry standards throughout the world are incorporated into the software, and automatically matched to a facility’s location and industry. Tracking the results of audits is easy, since they are integrated with engineering drawings, piping and instrumentation diagrams (P&ID), and plant isometrics.
iMAP Software prioritizes fireproofing maintenance and repair projects, taking into account a facility’s location, industry, insurance requirements, fire and safety objectives, maintenance policies, and existing condition. Tackling high-priority repairs helps maximize a facility’s life cycle and increase facility safety.
Examples of damaged fireproofing that an iMAP fireproofing audit can find include:
- Trapped moisture
- Corrosion under insulation (CUI)
- Corrosion under fireproofing (CUF)
- Exposed reinforcement mesh
- Delamination
With a complete inventory of fireproofing material, iMAP Software creates an itemized list of repair costs, including access, material, and labour. Facility owners and managers can plan maintenance with budgets in mind.
A drag and drop report builder in iMAP Software lets facility owners, planners, and auditors build reports that give them the information they need, in a format they want. And secure access from any web browser – even mobile devices – means that users have access to fireproofing information no matter where they are.
