Background. With the introduction of the updated regulatory legal documents regulating the procedures for the implementation of supervisory activities and preventive work, inquiries on fire cases, licensing and the provision of services in the field of fire safety, it became necessary to adjust the methods for assessing the activities of state fire supervision authorities. In this regard, one of the goals of improving the forms and methods of work of supervisory authorities in the field of fire safety is to develop a system of indicators, criteria and models for evaluating their activities from the standpoint of applying the mechanisms to the functioning of organizational structures. Materials and methods. To develop a model for evaluating the activities of the state fire supervision authorities, the statistical data generated in the information systems of the Ministry of Emergency Situations of Russia for the implementation of supervisory activities and preventive work, inquiry into fire cases, licensing and provision of services in the field of fire safety were studied. Based on the application of the Harrington function, calculated dependencies were developed for quantitative assessments of activities, both in its individual areas and in their totality. Results. Using the mechanisms of functioning of organizational structures, in relation to the activities of state fire supervision bodies, method for assessing the activities of an organization has been developed, including a system of indicators, criteria and mathematical dependencies. The method has been implemented in the EMERCOM of Russia. Conclusions. The proposed method makes it possible to carry out quantitative assessments of the activities of organizations and determine their comparative ratings.

Background. With the enactment of Federal Law No. 248-FZ «On State Control (Supervision) and Municipal Control in the Russian Federation» the need arose to develop a methodology for determining harm (damage) of varying magnitude and severity to legally protected values, including in the area of assessing the material consequences of fires. In this connection, one of the key purposes of activity of state fire supervision authorities is objective and reliable assessment of material damage of fires. Materials and methods. In the paper the problems of building of objective estimation of control and supervising activity in the field of fire safety on the basis of statistical data on material damage from fires are investigated. At the same time, the issues related to the development of calculation methods of determining the material damage from fires are considered. Results. Two computational methods for determining the material damage from fires are proposed. Conclusions. The offered methods will allow to define more fully the material damage from fires, which will contribute , firstly, to determination of the size of the real material damage from fires throughout Russia, and secondly, to more effective management of activity of bodies of the state fire supervision aimed at the minimization (reduction) of material damage from fires.
