## Summary

The University of Exeter is currently in the Tender stage of the procurement process for the contract titled "Water Level Loggers," which belongs to the goods category, specifically classified under water meters (CPV code 38421100). With a focus on monitoring surface water and groundwater across the UK, this procurement will facilitate the deployment of robust water level loggers in various upland and lowland locations. The tender was published on 19th February 2021, and submissions must be completed by 5th March 2021. The anticipated contract period runs from 31st March 2021 to 31st March 2022, with a budget ranging from £50,000 to £110,000.

This tender represents a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in environmental monitoring equipment, particularly those that can supply rugged, low-power water logging devices suitable for remote installation. Companies that thrive in innovation and durable goods manufacturing are particularly well-suited to compete for this contract, as the specified technical requirements highlight the need for advanced technology capable of long-term data recording in challenging conditions. Joining this procurement could lead to partnerships and growth as the successful bidder will contribute to critical environmental research efforts.

## Notice

The University of Exeter is a rapidly expanding centre of internationally excellent research and education. As part of the CREWW project, we wish to procure a significant number of water level loggers. These will be deployed to measure surface water and ground water across multiple remote, upland, and lowland locations across the UK. We require a significant number of water level loggers to continuously monitor surface water depth, river channel stage and water table depth, across multiple experimental catchments and river monitoring locations across the UK. These will be deployed in remote, upland, and lowland locations to monitor temporal changes in water storage and realise from ecosystems. Consequently, the units required must be very rugged, have sufficient internal memory to allow the long-term recording of near continuous measurements (i.e. at a 15 min timestep) and episodic data retrieval. Installation locations will also not have access to external power supply and will therefore need to have and have very low power requirements and internal power supplies.
