About this file
This document contains questions and answers regarding a fire station alerting system installation at Dyess Air Force Base in Texas. The contractor will be required to remove the existing Westnet alerting station and install a new fire department alerting system that is NFPA 1221/NFPA 1710 compliant. The new system must have the capability to alert each room individually based on assigned vehicles, and alert the entire facility which includes 25 bunk rooms, 1 compressor room, and 1 gym. It must include turnout timers and buttons, LED display boards with emergency information, a spare alerting interface controller, and be compatible with the base's MCC7500 dispatch console. The contractor will perform all required labor, provide materials and equipment, and install alert boxes in highlighted sections of the floorplan that indicate bunkrooms, compressor room, and two gyms. Remote access to the alerting system controller for 24/7 monitoring and software/configuration changes will be through a private network.

Fire Station Alerting System
DYESS AFB, TEXAS
RFQ FA4661-23-Q-0111 // QUESTIONS & ANSWERS
Question 1. Will Flex Conduit be allowed in place of rigid?
Answer: No. Flex is not allowed in long runs in accordance with the NEC. The circuits need to be run in EMT conduit at the very least and coupled together with compression connectors and not screw type connectors. Flex conduit is only allowed in short runs of 6' or less and mostly for lighting drops from a box to the light fixture.
Question 2. Is a display board wanted in the compressor room?
Answer: If feasible and within budget, yes. However, it is not a priority.
Question 3. Are strobes wanted in the auxiliary gym?
Answer: Yes, but no display boards in the back room of the auxiliary gym. There should be a board in the primary room (cardio room) of the auxiliary gym.
Question 4. On page 2 of the statement of work, is there any significance to the highlighted sections of the fire station floorplan?
Answer: Those highlighted sections indicate the bunkrooms, compressor room and The two gyms where alert boxes will need to be placed.
Question 5. Other than integration with the MCC7500 dispatch console, is there any Computer Aided Dispatch (CAD) system, on-base, or with an outside agency, that the alerting system would be required to communicate?
Answer: No, there is no other outside or on-base agency that we are required to communicate with that has a CAD system.
Question 6. Will the alerting system vendor have remote access to the alerting system controller/head-end equipment through a commercial or private network that would be used for 24/7 system monitoring, remote software updates, configuration changes or optional CAD delivery?
Answer: Yes, the vendor will have access through a private network.
