The safety of building's occupants is one of the most important things that should be considered in the design and construction process of a building. The provision of a reliable fire protection system could be the best way to provide a guarantee for fire safety. However, in a high-rise building, the evacuation process could be a problem when the occupants do not really understand about the evacuation procedure. Thus, a good fire safety management system is also needed to ensure that both the fire protection system and the evacuation procedure could run well when the accident happen. Through observation, documents review, and interview with the member of fire protection management as well as the building's occupants, this paper intends to assess the fire safety management organisation and its role to support the fire safety protection system of the 9th-floor building of Graha Rektorat of the State University of Malang. The assessment conducted will be based on regulation of the Ministry of Public Works no. 29/PRT/2006 on the fire safety protection and evacuation. It was found that the organisation of the fire safety management of the Graha Rektorat building is need to be optimized to meet the requirement of the regulation of the Ministry of Public Works no. 29/PRT/2006 as to serve a better support for the fire safety protection system in that building. © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.
