I'm sure I read in the report that they already had VESDA/MASD systems 
- the bit they were apparently short on was the suppression system.

I don't believe Halon gets installed any more - these days you're 
probably looking at FM200, Inergen, Proinert, etc.

If the building is segregated into individual fire compartments then an 
addressable system can significantly reduce the gas volume required.
