Invoicing requirements

It is our requirement that the owner of a monitored premises is invoiced for all alarm management charges as per Section 128, Fire Services Act 1990.

As an owner of monitored premises you may require the occupier or tenant to be responsible for paying the alarm management charge. Financial Operations, Alarms & System Support can establish an annexure to the Alarm Management Agreement (AMA) to allow for the deviation from our usual policy of invoicing the premises owner for services rendered in fire alarm monitoring.

Building compliance

The premises owner is responsible for compliance with the Building Code of Australia, including the requirement of specified classes of buildings to have a fire alarm monitoring system which is connected to the fire brigade or fire dispatch centre.
