Now that's pretty useful and a great use of the blockchain.
I understand that the records will be registered automatically right? Correct me if I'm wrong, but even then people might find the way of intercepting and modifying those records before being inserted into the DDBB right? Well, at least you know that once registered they can be checked, and you can make sure to make that part very secure and reduce the places where people can get they're hands into...
The records of maintenance are both digital (sensor derived state) and manual (an engineer goes and does what they are supposed to). It's unlikely that people would do nothing and simulate it, it's more likely that they didn't service a fire system as often as is legally required and after if the building has a fire, they'd want to fake the records.
I see, makes sense. I'm not very familiar with this kinds of systems! In that case I suppose it's quite an interesting application.
I'm kinda interested now, are you intending to use common tools for this (eg. ethereum, etc...), or are you planing to build your own? Will cryptocurrencies be involved or are you ditching this part? And lastly, how are you intending on distributing the system if making your own?
This is a very interesting question and the answer is I don't know. I'm looking at building our own block-chain but then who will sign it? We work with government so we might be able to organise something reputable. We could just store this on ethereum with the overhead of it being mixed up with everything else, but with a good way of ensuring signature of blocks. No crypto, it's just an immutable ledger I'm looking for.
Yup, that's the thing with building it yourself, it has happened tu us before and we also worked with government which helped a bit, made the process really slow but was quite helpful to have that support.
No crypto is a smart decision, as I've mentioned in other comments I think that's one of the points that make the most harm to current decentralized projects!
Good luck, sounds very interesting!
For further actions, you may consider blocking this person and/or reporting abuse
We're a place where coders share, stay up-to-date and grow their careers.

Nice idea nonetheless! Thanks for sharing!
