Lot Information

Lot 1

To summarise, the Contractor is required to maintain a GPS based tracker platform and mobile app, on behalf of the EA, for all suitable equipment. This system should include:
* Track all equipment including pump stock, flood barriers and some ancillary equipment
* Administration and management of the tracking platform web based and mobile app
* A facility to carry out maintenance on tracker system transponders as required
* Remote monitoring of pumps
* Provide reports showing a wide range of management information
* Ensure platform is compatible with EA systems.

Detailed specification for tracking and reporting of mobile pumps.
We have listed below a list of must have reporting parameters, below and will help us improve our overall efficiency as a team in the way we manage and operate our mobile assets.
Therefore, these reporting streams must be acquired to fulfil the following needs:
* Current position (real time)
* Historical movement reporting
* Status (on / off)
* Battery level / voltage
Pump remote monitoring requirement:
* Fuel level
* Ad blue level (if equipped)
* Temperature
* Oil pressure
* Oil level
* Suction pressure
* Discharge pressure
* Total hours
* RPM
* Pump operation state (auto / manual)
* Autonomous control of the pump
* Live view (camera?)
* Ability to hold historical data
* Asset function alarm notification system
* Remote interrogation of issues/HealthCheck reporting
* Any possible future technological innovation
We understand that this list of reporting parameters may be limited by the technology available e.g. Tier 3 pumps vs tier 5 pumps, however access to this information would also allow a more structured refuelling/maintenance/diagnosis, regime thus making incidents particularly more carbon efficient.
Location tracking of barriers and other auxiliary equipment
There is a specific requirement to be able to report accurately on the location of Mobile Assets and on other auxiliary equipment e.g. generators, eel strainers, metal stillages, lighting towers etc.
* Live location tracking
* Detailed mapping
* Reporting of movements
Technology requirement:
* It is an essential requirement to be available not only on desktop via PC/Laptop but also on a mobile device via an app or other accessible API.
* It is also essential that the raw data from our assets must be owned by the EA and should be in a format that can be shared if we need to, for use with third parties.
* There may be a requirement for GPS equipment with a high IP rating due to the nature of some of the mobile asset fleet. Additional information: Please register your interest for the tender by emailing pippa.hicks@defra.gov.uk.

Whilst we are not intending to carry out a RFI at this stage, we would like to gauge the market and should there be sufficient interest, and RFI may be carried out.
