Notice Title

Regional Telemetry System - Software & SI

Notice Description

The scope of this tender is for RTS software and related systems integration services. Yorkshire Water Services is undergoing a process for the transforming and enhancing of Operational Technology (OT) platforms and processes. The key focus of this procurement phase is to replace the existing Legacy Regional Telemetry System (RTS), integrate with existing business systems, associated training, and data transformation e.g. datapoints and mimics. RTS is our core Telemetry Monitoring System provided by Metasphere Ltd and is also known as the MC2000 product. This system currently provides the capability for near real time monitoring and intervention of 6500 Edge Devices, converting this data into actionable business intelligence. There are over 10,000 schematics (mimics) configured from a data base of over 275,000 data streams. Data streams are stored in a native historian and are key for YW day to day operations. This functionality ensures the safe and efficient operation of various assets, including monitoring reservoir and borehole levels, water quality readings, and pump or valve statuses across both clean and wastewater systems. The processed data is displayed in our operational control room and accessed remotely by key operational users, ensuring that our assets and processes operate efficiently, minimising risks to customers and the environment. This RTS data also is a key feed into our compliance and regulatory reporting systems.
