Who is responsible for providing the record of completion?

• A. Building Owner
• B. Installing Contractor
• C. AHJ
• D. Fire Chief

Answer: (B)

The installing contractor is responsible for providing the record of completion because they performed the installation, conducted the required tests, and prepared the documentation showing the system was installed and commissioned correctly. This record verifies that the work meets approved plans and code requirements and is used by the authority having jurisdiction to close the permit and grant occupancy. The building owner may keep a copy, and the AHJ reviews the record, but it is the installer who creates and submits it. The Fire Chief is not the party obligated to provide this record; in practice, the Fire Marshal or other AHJ representative handles the review and approval.
