Colorado Fire Incident Reporting System (CFIRS)

All 2025 reports need to be entered into NFIRS

Starting January 1, 2026, Colorado Fire Departments will start to report ALL 2026 incidents into NERIS

The Colorado Division of Fire Prevention & Control manages the Colorado Fire Incident Reporting System (CFIRS) program. CFIRS is an all-type incident reporting system for fire departments to submit their incident calls such as fires, EMS, rescue, hazmat, and more. CFIRS is a statewide reporting system for tracking all emergency responses on fire departments in Colorado.

Any time fire department resources (personnel or apparatus) leave the station to respond to an incident, it is then reported into their incident reporting software. Fire departments have the opportunity to report their incidents to the Colorado Fire Incident Reporting System.

Once departments report their incidents, they then have the ability to run summary statistical reports for their fire department. It is vital for departments to get credit for services that they provide to their local community, state and their country. The services provided to the community are shown by the incidents reported to CFIRS.

When fire departments participate into CFIRS, their incidents are then released and submitted to the National Fire Incident Reporting System (NFIRS). That information is then used for national research studies.
