Quality assurance

After data input, the incident will need to go through a quality assurance process by the line manager.
Fire and rescue service staff use the IRS system to perform their quality assurance and will then set the incident status to ‘published’ – this is equivalent to sending the form to Community for Local Government (CLG).
The e-form is not sent anywhere and is always held at the CLG from creation to completion, the form goes through a lifecycle status process from 'recorded' to 'published'.
Authorised fire and rescue service staff will be able to print standard reports and retrieve copies of the incident data for use in other systems.
Fire and rescue service administrative staff based at Service Headquarters will need to create and manage the users on the IRS system.
