Sandia National Laboratories conducted a reliability analysis on the Alertus mass notification system to determine if improvements need to be made to the system to increase reliability. The Alertus mass notification system for Building 803 was analyzed with a set number of components. The components, their associated failure modes and failure mode rates were inputted into a fault tree in the SAPHIRE software which calculated the reliability of the system to be 0.998269.
