Their capability is further limited by the age of the equipment, making it necessary to make repeated repairs. The benefit received from the FY 2010 "EnvironmentalTest Facility Vibration/Shock Test Capability Upgrade" project will be a more reliable vibration test capability. The Environmental Test Facility (ETF) supports theConsolidated Production Facility in providing engineering, design, test, evaluation, and qualification support for a variety of Naval Command, Control, Communications,Computers, and Intelligence (C4I) programs in support of Program Executice Office (PEO) C4I & Space tasking. This project will result in a reduction in the need to out-sourceto meet the needs of the Navy. A cost analysis has been performed on this project. There are no anticipated savings or cost avoidance for the ETF CIP Project. This project willreplace older and outdated equipment. Having the necessary equipment on site will allow SPAWAR to perform the work without having to outsource. The savings from inhousetesting will improve efficiencies and offset any cost incurred from this project. Not funding this project will have a critical impact on SSC Pacific's ability to deliverquality C4I products to the fleet, causing them to seek outside vendors.The Building 2A Command, Control, Communications, Computers, Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance (C4ISR) Philadelphia laboratories support PEO C4I ProgramManagement, Warfare 120 (PMW-120) Distributed Common Ground Station – Navy (DCGS-N) and the Joint Services Imagery Processing System that require cooling systems.Existing systems are more than 30 years old and have not received any intermediate upgrades. Systems are no longer sustainable and jeopardize operational support andtesting. The FY 2011 "Install Backup Power & Air Conditioning Units, Philadelphia" project will ugrade the air conditioning (A/C) in the Philadelphia labs, therebyincreasing availibility, decreasing repair costs, and making the systems more environmentally friendly. A cost analysis has been performed on this project. While there are noanticipated savings or cost avoidance anticipated, the operational cost savings realized by installing new energy efficient A/C units will help defray the cost of the unit and thesavings in lost work hours will more than compensate for the cost of the increased reliability. The impact of not making this investment will dramatically increase systemfailures over time and consequently diminish the availability of all of the SPAWAR System Center Command and Intelligence Systems Division Philadelphia labs resulting inlost work hours and risk to testing schedules.Exhibit Fund-9B Capital Investment JustificationNon-ADPE Replacement
