About this file
This document is a Questions and Answers file for Project FQ-00040-24, focused on maintenance of airfield lighting control systems at Simmons Army Airfield (SAAF) and Mackall Army Airfield (MAAF). The document details vendor inquiries and official responses regarding the scope of a planned upgrade to the airfield lighting control and monitoring systems. Key details include: confirmation that the Performance Work Statement (PWS) intends to upgrade existing L821 systems to an L-890 Airfield Lighting Control and Monitoring System (ALCMS), merge runway lighting controls for MAAF's two runways into a single panel, incorporate beacon control into the new system, and maintain existing communication infrastructure with RS232 communications boxes on a fiber line. The windcones will remain unchanged, continuing to be powered by 120V and operated continuously without integration into the new system.
