Les systèmes d’alarme comprennent par exemple les systèmes de détection d’intrusion ou contre les hold-up, les systèmes de contrôle d’accès, les systèmes de protection périphériques, les systèmes de vidéosurveillance, ainsi que d’autres systèmes de contrôle et de surveillance liés aux applications de sécurité.
Storitve za sisteme požarne varnosti in varovanja
Ta evropski standard določa splošne zahteve za minimalno kakovost storitev podjetij, kot tudi kompetence sodelujočega osebja, zadolženega za načrtovanje, oblikovanje, namestitev, zagon, preverjanje, predajo ali vzdrževanje sistemov požarne varnosti in/ali varnostnih sistemov, ne glede na to, ali se te storitve zagotavljajo na kraju samem ali na daljavo. Ta evropski standard se uporablja za storitve sistemov požarne varnosti in/ali varnostne sisteme, sisteme za zaznavanje požara in požarne alarme, varnostne alarmne sisteme, vključno s tistimi deli alarmnega sistema, za katere je ponudnik storitev sprejel pogodbeno odgovornost (razen socialnih alarmnih sistemov, alarmnih sprejemnih centrov in preostalih delov omrežnih alarmnih sistemov) ter za fiksne sisteme za gašenje požarov in kombinacijo takšnih sistemov. Ta standard se uporablja ne glede na velikost projekta ali strukturo oziroma velikost podjetja.

Overview
EN 16763:2017 (CEN) - "Services for fire safety systems and security systems" defines minimum requirements for service providers and the competencies, knowledge and skills of staff involved in the planning, design, installation, commissioning, verification, handover and maintenance of fire safety and security systems. It applies to on-site and remote services irrespective of project size or organizational structure. Systems covered include fire detection and fire alarm (including voice alarm), fixed firefighting (water- and gas-based, smoke/heat control) and security systems (intruder/hold‑up alarms, access control, perimeter protection, video surveillance) and their combinations. Social alarm systems and alarm receiving centres are excluded.
Key topics and requirements
- Scope and stages of work: planning, design, installation, commissioning, verification, handover, maintenance - each stage requires documented outputs (see Annex A guidance).
- Service provider obligations: registration in a CEN/CENELEC member country, clear declaration of geographic coverage, compliance with national laws and applicable European/national application guidelines, access to manufacturer instructions and standards.
- Quality and management: documented management system for service quality (e.g., EN ISO 9001 or equivalent recommended), processes for collecting client/site information, record keeping (contract duration + 5 years if not otherwise regulated).
- Staff competencies and roles:
- Role A - technical decision-maker: responsible for technical compliance, risk management, supervision and professional development (demonstrable experience or EQF Level 5).
- Role B - self-managing staff who supervise routine work and support evaluation/improvement.
- Role C - operational staff executing routine tasks under supervision.
- Subcontracting: providers must monitor subcontractor quality; subcontracting does not remove primary contractual responsibility.
- Security and insurance: evidence of staff/company vetting where required; appropriate insurance for declared services.
- System conformity: use components/systems compliant with applicable standards or acknowledged rules of technology.
Applications
EN 16763 is practical for:
- Companies delivering installation, commissioning, maintenance and verification services for fire safety and security systems.
- Facility managers and building owners specifying minimum service levels in contracts.
- Certification bodies and auditors using the standard as a basis for service-level assessments.
- Regulators and procurement teams harmonizing cross-border service quality under the EU Services Directive.
Who should use this standard
- Fire and security service providers, integrators, installers, consultants, maintenance contractors, facility managers, insurers, and conformity assessment bodies.
Related standards
EN 16763 should be used alongside product and system standards developed by relevant CEN/CENELEC committees (e.g., CEN/TC 72, CLC/TC 79, CEN/TC 191) and national application guidelines. It can support the development of certification schemes but is not a certification scheme by itself.
