ABSTRACT:
A system for the management of information relating to the installation of firestopping systems within one or more facilities by contractors includes a network server and client devices that interact with the network server via a computer network. The client devices may be associated with administrators and contractors. The network server collects information from the contractors that describes a penetration of a fire-rated structure or an installation of a fire-rated duct, and direct a database server to generate a record for the penetration or duct based on the collected information and store the record in a database. The information may include the contractor, an authorizer, work-type, location, and one or more firestopping systems to be installed. The network server may provide the contractors with lists of permissible selections for the information. The network server may generate these lists from information stored in the database that was previously provided by administrators.
