BrightSync
Fire systems + Purpose builds

Safer buildings. Smarter systems. Under one roof.

The fire-systems work that won’t close on a regular service call. Field investigations, fault finding, panel programming, full system upgrades, handled directly across NSW. Plus custom hardware, software, and AI when off-the-shelf won’t do.

What we do

Two disciplines. One specialist.

The fire-systems work other contractors subcontract out, and the purpose-built hardware, software, and AI that buildings and teams need when off-the-shelf won’t do. One specialist, scope to handover.

Fire systems

The fire-systems jobs that need a specialist.

Faults that won’t clear. Programming across panel generations. Upgrades without dropping coverage. We work direct on the building, or under a fire company’s brand.

Purpose builds

Hardware, software, and AI built to fit

For fire companies, building operators, and teams that need a build rather than an off-the-shelf product. From custom interfaces to operator consoles to AI in the workflow. Work that doesn’t fit a template. Scoped with you, built to brief, commissioned on site.

How we work

Three steps. Scoped before anything starts.

Same three steps, whether it’s a fire diagnosis, a programming job, a custom build, or an AI tool. Scope, price, and timing agreed up front. You always know what’s next.

Phase 01After the first call

Brief & scope

You send through what you’re working on. A panel that’s fighting you, a system that needs building, an AI tool that needs shaping. We talk through it, walk the site or what you’ve got running if needed, and agree what the job is before anyone commits to anything.

  • Written scope
  • Written quote
  • Honest read on fit
Phase 02Before anything starts

Design or diagnosis

For fire work, we isolate and plan the fix, programming, or interface. For custom systems, a working prototype or design for sign-off. Either way, nothing gets built or installed until you’ve seen it.

  • Plan or prototype
  • Review with you
  • Sign-off
Phase 03Through the job and after

Delivery & handoff

Programming commissioned, system installed, docs written. Same lead, start to finish. Direct line, not a support queue. Six months later, twelve months later, same number you started on.

Purpose build

NIDA: alarm-aware EWIS announcements

National Institute of Dramatic Art · Sydney
The situation

Fire wardens rotate across shifts on the NIDA campus, and when an announcement needs to go out, the person on duty is reading from a script under pressure. Different accents, speeds, and delivery styles meant the same message landed inconsistently for the hundreds of people on site. Under real stress the warden had enough to deal with without worrying about their voice carrying clearly across the building.

The approach

We built a messaging system that extends the site’s Ampac EvacuElite EWIS without touching any life-safety path. A touchscreen installed beside the EWIS controls lets wardens play standardised, pre-recorded messages with a single press. The system watches the Ampac FireFinder+ fire panel through an isolated relay: in normal operation the UI shows the full library of general announcements; when the panel goes into alarm, the UI switches automatically to a focused emergency flow with only the three relevant warden responses and large, unambiguous broadcast buttons. A separate browser-based simulator, with a vectorised copy of the EvacuElite panel, lets wardens rehearse the whole flow from any laptop without touching the live system.

The outcome

Live in production. Every announcement goes out clear and consistent. Wardens get the right screen for the state they’re in. Training happens in the simulator, and the FireFinder+ and EvacuElite continue to do their primary life-safety jobs exactly as before.

System upgrade

Capitol Square Centre & Hotel: full fire and EWIS upgrade

Capitol Square Centre & Hotel · Sydney
The situation

A mixed-use Sydney building. Retail, offices, hotel. Networked Ampac FireFinder v6 and EV3000 EWIS across two nodes: one in the basement plant room, one in the hotel lobby. The system was past end of life. The building was occupied across all three uses, so fire and EWIS coverage couldn’t drop at any point during the swap.

The approach

Old and new ran side by side at every stage. The two FireFinder v6 panels replaced with a networked FireFinder+ pair. The two EV3000 EWIS units replaced with a networked EvacuElite pair. Cascade evacuation programmed across both nodes. Fan and damper interfaces commissioned across the site. Fire panel integrated to the building BMS over HLI. Tested against the mechanical, security, and monitoring systems already running.

The outcome

Live across both nodes. Two FireFinder+ panels networked. Two EvacuElite EWIS units networked. Cascade evacuation running. Fan and damper interfaces commissioned. Fire panel and BMS speaking over HLI. The building never came off fire coverage at any point during the swap.

Who we are

Engineer-led. Both sides of the panel.

Founded in 2024 by Marek Pejcoch.

BrightSync was built on an industrial engineering background. Recycling first: plants, PLCs, conveyor logic, shredders, the kind of equipment that has to keep running. Building the bits that didn’t yet exist was the part that mattered most.

The fire-systems side came after a 2016 move to Sydney. Close to a decade in NSW fire-systems contracting showed plenty of jobs where the same approach could deliver something off-the-shelf can’t. BrightSync brings both into one practice, with AI making the combination practical.

That mix isn’t standard. Most fire contractors don’t write software. Most software teams don’t touch fire panels.
