Valoriser les processus pour élaborer des cahiers des charges: une approche innovante

Lors de la fusion de communes, l’organisation des services du feu et leur efficacité dans la lutte contre les incendies et autres sinistres est une préoccupation des autorités cantonales. L’accroissement des activités socio-économiques et des besoins humains exerce une pression grandissante sur les corps des sapeurs-pompiers (CSP), créant des difficultés de recrutement et de fonctionnement, réduisant l’efficacité d’utilisation des ressources disponibles (hommes et équipement). Le processus de collaboration ou de fusion au niveau des CSP vise à mieux identifier les problèmes et à être capable de répondre aux normes en vigueur, notamment en intervenant dans le délai stipulé (15 minutes à partir de l’alarme). Ce papier introduit un modèle de représentation des processus liés aux activités des sapeurs-pompiers (SP). La bonne compréhension de ces processus permet d’identifier les activités de chaque acteur et ainsi d’élaborer son cahier des charges (CdC). A partir de trois processus caractéristiques, les différentes étapes du modèle proposé sont explicitement mises en évidence

Finding the adequate location scenario after the merger of fire brigades thanks to Multiple Criteria Decision Analysis Methods

This paper addresses the issue of selecting a suitable location for a fire station in canton of Fribourg, as a result of a fire brigades’merger, by applying Multiple Criteria Decision Analysis (MCDA) methods. Solving the problem of determining fire station locations through various methods has been analyzed in-­‐depth by researchers. However, a different approach, based on application of methods like ELECTRE and PROMETHEE is advanced in this paper. The selection of the most suitable fire station site is obtained by applying the designated methods to five distinctive alternatives (called scenarios), taking into consideration the relatively limited information and specifics, and the extensive number of relevant criteria that summed up to seventy-­‐ eight. Taking the merger of the three local fire departments as an example, the proposed methods for selecting a suitable location for the fire station demonstrate and justify the reason behind this choice. Research shows that the applied methods have been proven to be useful and powerful tools that exhibited acceptable levels of consistency when selecting the best project. The main finding is that one scenario in particular proved to be strongly dominant over the others and most suitable in determining the fire station location

Solving the problem of determining fire station locations through various methods has been analyzed in-depth by researchers. However, a different approach, based on application of ELECTRE I and ELECTRE II methods is advanced in this paper. The selection of the most suitable fire station site is obtained by applying the designated methods to five distinctive alternatives (called scenarios), taking into consideration the relatively limited information and specifics, and the extensive number of relevant criteria that summed up to sixty-one. Taking the merger of the three local fire departments as an example, the proposed methods for selecting a suitable location for the fire station demonstrate and justify the reason behind this choice. Research shows that the applied methods have been proven to be useful and powerful tools that exhibited acceptable levels of consistency when selecting the best project.
