## Summary

The procurement process for "Monitoring Asset Performance for Maintenance Optimisation" is being led by the Defra Network eTendering Portal located in Bristol, England. This project falls under the research consultancy services category (CPV: 73210000) and is currently in the planning stage. The tender was published on 28th June 2018 and is set to conclude on 30th July 2018, with the contract period anticipated to commence on 1st January 2019 and run until 30th June 2022. The method of procurement indicated is a selective approach through a competitive procedure with negotiation, aimed at exploring predictive analytical techniques for optimising maintenance on flood defence assets.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in research and development services, particularly those with expertise in data analysis, sensor technology, and decision-support systems. Firms that can demonstrate innovation in predictive maintenance and have the capability to deploy end-to-end sensing technologies would be well-suited to compete for this contract. Additionally, businesses interested in participating in the specified Q&A webinar slated for 16th March 2018, designed to clarify project requirements and foster communication, are encouraged to apply via the Bravo portal before the deadline on 9th March 2018.

## Notice

The Environment Agency have started a project to look at how predictive analytical techniques can be used to optimise asset maintenance and operations. We want to explore how data can be gathered from sensors deployed on flood asset components and how the data can be then used to detect anomalies and trends as components degrade. The ultimate aim is to complete a full prototype test of an end-to-end sensing and decision-support system. This prototype will be deployed on an Environment Agency owned pumping station.
