## Summary

The Coal Authority is seeking tenders for the "Flow Monitoring Design & Installation Framework" aimed at providing flow monitoring design and installation services across various locations in the United Kingdom. This framework is set to run for four years starting from 18th September 2017. The tender period ends on 30th June 2017. The procurement method employed is selective, following a restricted procedure, with an estimated value of £400,000. Tenderers may express interest in one or more of the four designated regions: North, Central, Wales & West Midlands, and South West. Interested parties can find the relevant documents via the Coal Authority's eTender portal hosted by Bravosolution.

This tender presents a valuable opportunity for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) specialising in flow-measuring equipment and related services to engage in a long-term contract. Companies that provide design and installation services for hydraulic structures, particularly in remote upland locations, would be well-suited to compete for this contract. The tender encourages participation across multiple regions, expanding the scope for interested suppliers to demonstrate their capabilities and potentially secure ongoing work in the flow monitoring sector.

## Notice

You are invited to submit a tender for providing the Authority with flow monitoring design & installation services. We are seeking to appoint a number of suppliers to a flow monitoring design & installation framework for structures (predominantly weirs) and associated infrastructure (i.e. stilling tubes and/or gauge boards) and associated enabling works at sites across the UK which will run for four years from September 2017. The Services requirements have been divided into 4 regions across the two disciplines of Design & Installation (map provided for further information) 1. North 2. Central 3. Wales & West Midlands 4. South West Tenderers can submit an Expression of Interest covering one, all, or any number of regions and activities The majority of monitoring sites are in remote upland locations without electricity or other services. Thin plate weirs are the primary method utilised to measure flows at existing sites, although other installations may be required in certain circumstances. Installations may require provision of suitable access i.e. steps, trackway etc. Many monitoring points have loggers installed to provide continuous flow measurements and these are downloaded when our technician visits site to take measurements and water samples.
