My father is a fire marshal. Building have to go through a routine inspection every ___ months/years depending on what the state says. Even if they fail, they still have time to fix problems before they are shut down.
As far as sprinklers, according to the Life Saftey Code Book if a stucture is under 10,000 sqft sprinklers are not required.
