## Description

This Class JA (Justification and Approval) covers all USAF facility fire alarm panel purchases from the effective date of this Class JA through 30 Sep 2031. Selected Fire Alarm Panel brand name is Hochiki. Fire alarm panel purchases during the next 5 years are expected to number 20864 units (the number of units expected to reach the end of service life). The total spend necessary for replacement of these units has been estimated at approximately $14.8M.

Approval of this Class JA will reduce the total cost of ownership to the Air Force by eliminating inefficiencies and duplication in cost by reducing the need to train USAF fire alarm panel technicians on multiple manufacturers systems, eventually reducing training requirement by an estimated $22M and 375K hours per 5 year training cycle. Standardization under this class JA also allows, over time, fire alarm panel repair and programming to be done in-house as the primary option versus contracting out these services.

Approval will also increase mission performance efficiencies by streamlining and specializing Civil Engineering (CE) maintainers schoolhouse training and more importantly additional training at the maintainers duty location on base-specific manufactures generators, increasing expertise of organic technicians thereby reducing downtime of fire alarm panels for repair and replacement due to increasing expertise of organic technicians.

The increased availability of trained technicians also improves the sustainment of the Air Forces equipment, machinery, and communications systems. Approval will also increase process efficiencies by allowing CE pre-planning for building design, will improve life-cycle maintenance and replacement of expensive and critical equipment, and will leverage spending on spare parts inventory.
