In addition to more than 7,200 built-in reports NFIRS 5 Alive also includes four analyzers; 1.) Time Analyzer 2.) Staff Analyzer, 3.) Aid Analyzer and 4.) GIS Analyzer. Each analyzer simplifies complex reporting calculations. Select, process and report. Get all the information you need quickly and easily.
NFIRS 5 Alive makes fast work of fracile calculations
necessary for Standard of Cover (SOC) and NFPA 1710. Quickly set
goals and breakdown compliance by station, hour, shift, etc.
Visualize your data geographically. NFIRS 5 Alive creates
KML files that display your data on GIS browsers. View performance
by location or node. See response "spiders". Animate by time.
Risk Analysis is a vital part of any Standard of
Cover (SOC) or fire department accreditation study. NFIRS 5 Alive
now includes a complete Risk Analysis module.Import ISO spreadsheets, merge RMS Occupancy data or even community tax data. Automatically assemble incident history and response time performance for each building location.
Export risk data to field units and import their inspection results. Create a list of user-defined risks. You can also score risks using a system that works for your fire department.
You can also use the GIS module to put your risks on the map. Like Incidents and Apparatus responses, risks may be viewed in a GIS browser. For example, view risks by the number of floors to help position truck companies. View risk distribution throughout a community or zoom-in on a specific neighborhood to view risks at the roof-top level. Create maps illustrating distribution of risks by risk type or risk score. You can even view risks by the number and types of incidents in their incident history.
All import and export formats store for reuse. You can even store pictures with each risk record. Risk Analysis is a new feature in NFIRS 5 Alive.

If you need reports your RMS system doesn't provide simply add NFIRS 5 Alive as a reporting accessory. NFIRS 5 Alive imports a variety of raw fire data including:
- NFIRS 5 (State Fire Marshal) Transaction Files
- ISO Risk Spreadsheet Data
- Raw CAD data
- Occupancy data
- RMS Text File Exports
Once imported NFIRS 5 Alive goes to work. It merges your data into a powerful "Knowledge Base" connected to a wealth of pre-programmed reports. Now the information you need to run your department is close at hand.
- Run reports from an inventory of 7,200 report formats you locate by key word.
- Select from scores of fractile reporting options in the "Time Analyzer".
- Assemble staffing workload models animated by hour of day, day of week or by month.
- Watch "out of district" response models display fire station activity animated by hour of day.
- Instantly create KML files to view Incidents, Apparatus or Risk activity in a GIS browser.
- Watch map "spiders" show apparatus response patterns animated by time of day.
- View incident histories by risk, by station, by district, by vehicle or even by responder.
- Create an NFPA 1710 summary report in less than 3-minutes.
- Analyze EMS BLS/ALS response levels and arrival sequences.
- Monitor EMS transportation arrival compliance.
- Assemble your reports into a slide show in the Presentations module.
- Connect to MS Word, Excel and PowerPoint to quickly produce reports, charts and presentations.
