Anglian Water has gone out to tender with an AMP7/8 contract for sewer network monitoring sensors worth an estimated £10 million.
The water company is looking to procure sewer monitoring network level sensor remote telemetry units and flow sensor remote telemetry units in order to proactively address blockages and pollution events including the potential for high spilling CSO locations by being paired with a visualisation platform.
The contract is being tendered in two separate Lots:
Lot 1 Flow Sensors - meaning a single device which is installed below ground level and is capable of measuring flow of water, sewage or sludge, with telemetry capability to remotely transmit flow data.
Lot 2 Level Sensors - meaning a single device which is installed below ground level and is capable of measuring the level of water, sewage or sludge, with telemetry capability to remotely transmit flow data.
During the 7 year contract period Anglian Water intends to procure a range of equipment and services, including:
- acquisition of ~20,000 sewer network monitoring sensors in the first two years of the agreement
- acquisition of replacement sewer network monitors
- acquisition of replacement batteries
- data and digital / telemetry services
- collection / delivery and disposal
The procurement does not cover the installation, maintenance and replacement of sensors or a visualisation platform with analytics. The installation, maintenance and replacement of sensors will be done by Anglian Water or a third party delivery route, while the visualisation platform will be separately tendered.
Key requirements the utility is looking for include:
- Capable suppliers offering "off the shelf" devices which are quick and simple to install, are maintenance free.
- Robust sensors and brackets suitable for deployment in the sewer network.
- Right first time deployment. Some locations will have low cellular strength.
- A "no quibble" warranty covering all aspects of the bracket and sensor with quick delivery of a replacement device.
- Capable suppliers who can help minimise environmental impact through device and battery longevity, and repair / reuse / recycle systems.
- Delivery of sensors to selected staffed goods inward / logistics centres. At times delivery of small volume replacements may be direct to Anglian sites; these will also be staffed.
