Title: Public Address System Replacement
1. INTRODUCTION
1.1. Summary
The City of Phoenix Aviation Department (“City” or “Aviation”) is seeking a qualified Contractor to
provide design, installation, commissioning, and ongoing maintenance and support services as
part of the Public Address System (PAS) Replacement project at Phoenix Sky Harbor
International Airport (PHX). The successful Contractor is to provide turn-key solutions for the
replacement of the current PAS, integration of the new PAS within an existing system, and new
installation of the PAS, where applicable. Specifically, the project’s base sites are located at
Terminal 3 (T3), Terminal 4 (T4), SkyTrain Stations, and the Rental Car Center. In T4 [with the
exception of the new T4 South Concourse 1 (T4S1)], the Contractor is to provide updated paging
zones, speakers, wiring, and all necessary equipment and programming. In T3 and T4S1, the
Contractor is to replace the existing PAS equipment, except for existing cabling and speakers
which will be utilized in this project. The City is also seeking to integrate the new PAS with the
Sky Train Stations’ existing announcement system. Lastly, the City is seeking PAS design and
installation into the main lobby area of the Rental Car Center where no current PAS infrastructure
exists.
It is the City’s intent to award this Contract to a single integrator as the designated Contractor
responsible for managing all aspects of the PAS project including the design, installation,
commissioning, and ongoing maintenance and support phases. The designated Contractor will
also be responsible for the management and oversight of proposed subcontractors, if any, for this
project.
1.2. Background
Approximately 44 million passengers traveled through PHX in 2022. The PAS is a critical system
that enables the airport, airlines, and other partners to communicate to the passengers and other
critical stakeholders on both an informational and emergency basis.
The system in T4 was originally installed with the opening of the facility in 1990. In 2003, the PAS
application and related back-end hardware [i.e. amplifiers, digital signal processors (DSPs), etc.]
were replaced; however, the speakers and cabling for the speakers were untouched. In 2015-
2016, the PAS application and back-end hardware were replaced, but the speakers and cabling
were untouched.
In 2016, the first phase of the modernization project for T3 was completed. As part of this capital
project, the PAS was completely replaced including new speakers and speaker re-zoning, and
new fire-rated cabling. In the Spring of 2022, the new concourse within T4S1 opened with state-
of-the-art cabling, speakers, and electronics which are compliant with current fire code.
Additionally, monitoring from the fire alarm panels was implemented due to fire codes. This
monitoring is currently only implemented in T3 and T4S1.
As a result of the speakers and cabling in T4 (but not T4S1) being over 30 years old, there are
many issues that cannot be remediated with a new application and/or head-end equipment. Years
of tenant improvement projects and upgrades to the terminal have resulted in many paging zones
being no longer effective, along with significantly diminished audio acuity through most areas.
