This tender was for replacing a telemetry management system used for monitoring environmental data across ~700 stations. The tender was awarded 70% based on quality and 30% on price. Although the tender is cancelled, it reflects SEPA's commitment to efficient environmental monitoring. This tender, which aimed to replace a telemetry system for environmental monitoring, would have presented opportunities for businesses specializing in software packages, information systems, telemetry equipment, and environmental monitoring services. The cancellation of the tender signifies a shift in SEPA's procurement strategy, offering insights into potential future opportunities for businesses in these sectors. ## Notice SEPA is responsible for ~700 monitoring stations equipped with a variety of sensors, data-loggers and telecommunication equipment, servicing observations across all environmental media. The data collected on the loggers are automatically transmitted to a central archive database via a telemetry management system, from whence they are automatically processed and distributed to a range of reporting and operational end-uses. SEPA requires this system to be replaced. ### Lot Information Lot 1 SEPA is responsible for ~700 monitoring stations equipped with a variety of sensors, data-loggers and telecommunication equipment, servicing observations across all environmental media. Various data-loggers are in use, supporting multiple transducer channels and protocols, including industry-standard analogue and digital communications. Very few stations enjoy mains electricity connections, so most are battery-powered, typically supported by solar PV arrays. The data collected on the loggers are automatically transmitted to a central archive database via a telemetry management system, from whence they are automatically processed and distributed to a range of reporting and operational end-uses. The existing system is in transition from 'pull' to 'push' data transmission to the central archive and, as such, includes a mixture of wired and radio telephony, and wireless digital communications. SEPA require this system to be replaced. Renewal: Initial 48 month duration with option to extend by a further 72 months in 24 month intervals ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Find A Tender Service | | Latest notice | https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/036551-2022 | | Notice type | Tender Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Goods | | Procurement method | Open | | Procurement method details | Open procedure | | Tender suitability | Not specified | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Tender, Award | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 23 Dec 2022 | | Submission deadline | 14 Sep 2022 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | 23 Dec 2022 | | Contract period | Not specified | | Recurrence | 12-18 months before end of current contract | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £1,400,000 | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Cancelled | | Lots status | Cancelled | | Awards status | Unsuccessful | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | SCOTTISH ENVIRONMENT PROTECTION AGENCY | | Locality | STIRLING | | Post town | Falkirk and Stirling | | Postcode | FK9 4TZ | | Country | Scotland | | ITL 1 | TLM Scotland | | ITL 2 | TLM0 Eastern Scotland | | ITL 3 | TLM02 Perth and Kinross, and Stirling | | Local authority | Stirling | | Electoral ward | Stirling North | | Westminster constituency | Stirling and Strathallan | | Delivery location | TLM Scotland | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 32 - Radio, television, communication, telecommunication and related equipment - 48 - Software package and information systems - 71 - Architectural, construction, engineering and inspection services - 90 - Sewage, refuse, cleaning and environmental services ### Codes - 32441000 - Telemetry equipment - 48000000 - Software package and information systems - 48100000 - Industry specific software package - 71700000 - Monitoring and control services - 90711500 - Environmental monitoring other than for construction ## Release History - 23 Dec 2022 at 13:35 - Award - Award Notice - https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/036551-2022 - 22 Aug 2022 at 10:31 - TenderUpdate - Tender Notice - https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/023247-2022 - 15 Aug 2022 at 13:38 - TenderUpdate - Tender Notice - https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/022454-2022 - 11 Aug 2022 at 13:39 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/022178-2022 ## Notice URLs - http://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk - http://www.sepa.org.uk - https://api.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/v1/Notice?id=ocds-r6ebe6-0000697891 - https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/search/Search_AuthProfile.aspx?ID=AA11302 ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
