The City of Independence has utilized Brycer the Compliance Engine as a partner in the identification and revenue collection point since August 19, 2019. This service has allowed the City of Independence Fire Department to identify the fire protection systems in businesses within the City of Independence and assure those systems are inspected and maintained according to the Codes adopted by the City. After a third-party inspection company completes the initial inspection all the appropriate paperwork is forwarded to the Independence Fire Department and follow up inspections are scheduled in the event there are deficiencies not corrected at the initial inspection. Independence Fire Department Fire Prevention Division completes all the follow up inspections.
Currently, the City of Independence receives zero dollars from Brycer – The Compliance Engine for the any services we complete, although we can identify where all our business systems are located in our community. This program will initiate a revenue share that will help to fund community risk reduction programs within the Fire Prevention Division, which we can then provide to the community. Some of those programs would be a dedicated Smoke Detector Program, a strong Public Education Program for the schools and the community, a Home Risk Reduction Program, possible support funding for Pulse Point (emergency and specifically cardiac emergencies alerts) just to name a few.
