Fire Pre Plan Solution and Accela software interface

[JimEgan]

Our department is working on the Esri fire pre plan solution and at the same time we are currently transitioning to the Accela software platform for permitting and inspections.  Are we able to leverage any building permit data and plans that we keep in Accela with the Esri pre plan solution? 

We are in the development stages of Accela and now is the time to create any fields for capturing ideal pre plan data.

Hi Jim,

One of the first steps of the Pre-Incident Planning Solution is to load your building footprints into the Pre-Incident Plans layer that is included with the solution:
https://doc.arcgis.com/en/arcgis-solutions/latest/reference/configure-pre-incident-planning.htm#ESRI...

This layer can definitely be extended with additional attributes if you want to include permits and has attachments enabled too if you load in other plans associated.  There is not a ton of requirement for data fields for loading but I would take a look at that layer in the solution and see the attributes we supply and what you may want to add before loading.

Happy to discuss this further.
