ORR Protection, a fire protection solutions company ranked No. 30 on the SDM 100, launched two platforms, SelectORR and ProtectORR. This marks ORR Protection’s first investment in proprietary software development and its official entry into digital fire protection solutions for modular and containerized applications, including data centers and Battery Energy Storage Systems.

SelectORR is a project and service command center that unites sales, design, operations, and service in a single platform. By providing shared visibility, standardized workflows, and automated compliance tools, SelectORR streamlines the entire fire protection lifecycle, covering product selection, design, parts delivery, installation, commissioning, and ongoing service. Tailored for large-scale modular projects and OEM partners, SelectORR accelerates design cycles, reduces errors, ensures compliance, and improves visibility for every stakeholder. The SelectORR Application Modules include:

  • Configurator: Auto-generate code-compliant system designs and detailed BOMs.
  • FieldWork: Guided workflows walk technicians through installation, testing, and certification.
  • ITMM Services: Scope, price, and manage inspection, testing, maintenance, and monitoring (ITMM) services.

“SelectORR represents a major milestone for ORR Protection and our industry,” said Woodie Andrawos, CEO, ORR Protection. “This is the first time we’ve invested in developing a software solution, and we built it with one clear goal: to take the guesswork and inefficiency out of modular fire protection. Together with ProtectORR, we’re delivering a truly turnkey solution, software and hardware working seamlessly, to help OEMs, end users, and integrators move faster, reduce risk, and ensure compliance from day one.”

ProtectORR is a portfolio of turnkey hardware bundles developed with ORR’s manufacturing partners, offering access to code-compliant fire protection solutions for modular and containerized applications. Each bundle is pre-engineered, code-compliant, and readily available through the SelectORR platform.

“We are proud to collaborate with ORR Protection on ProtectORR,” Glenn Cowan, director of fire partner programs, Siemens Smart Infrastructure USA, said. “Modular data centers and BESS deployments demand solutions that are fast, reliable, and code compliant. ProtectORR leverages Siemens’ proven detection and suppression technologies within a streamlined bundle that reduces integration complexity and accelerates deployment timelines.”  

Kelly Sanderson, sales director, North America, Kidde Fire Systems, said, “Kidde Fire Systems is a proud partner of the ProtectORR portfolio, bringing together a wide range of industry-leading solutions. ProtectORR makes it simple for end users and operators to find the right fire protection solution for their unique needs.”
