The contract involves tracking, remote monitoring, and reporting of pumps, barrier stillages, and auxiliary equipment, with a total value of £5.0 million over an 8-year period. Businesses interested in providing vehicle-fleet management services for monitoring and control services in the environmental protection category would be well-suited to compete.

This tender emphasises the importance of technology compatibility, data ownership, and adherence to specific reporting parameters, making it an attractive opportunity for businesses in the environmental services sector.

## Notice

### Lot Information

Lot 1

To summarise, the Contractor is required to maintain a GPS based tracker platform and mobile app, on behalf of the EA, for all suitable equipment. This system should include:
* Track all equipment including pump stock, flood barriers and some ancillary equipment
* Administration and management of the tracking platform web based and mobile app
* A facility to carry out maintenance on tracker system transponders as required
* Remote monitoring of pumps
* Provide reports showing a wide range of management information
* Ensure platform is compatible with EA systems.

Detailed specification for tracking and reporting of mobile pumps. 
We have listed below a list of must have reporting parameters, below and will help us improve our overall efficiency as a team in the way we manage and operate our mobile assets.
Therefore, these reporting streams must be acquired to fulfil the following needs:
* Current position (real time)
* Historical movement reporting
* Status (on / off)
* Battery level / voltage
Pump remote monitoring requirement:
* Fuel level
* Ad blue level (if equipped) 
* Temperature
* Oil pressure
* Oil level
* Suction pressure
* Discharge pressure
* Total hours 
* RPM
* Pump operation state (auto / manual)
* Autonomous control of the pump
* Live view (camera?)
* Ability to hold historical data
* Asset function alarm notification system
* Remote interrogation of issues/HealthCheck reporting
* Any possible future technological innovation
We understand that this list of reporting parameters may be limited by the technology available e.g. Tier 3 pumps vs tier 5 pumps, however access to this information would also allow a more structured refuelling/maintenance/diagnosis, regime thus making incidents particularly more carbon efficient.
Location tracking of barriers and other auxiliary equipment
There is a specific requirement to be able to report accurately on the location of Mobile Assets and on other auxiliary equipment e.g. generators, eel strainers, metal stillages, lighting towers etc.
* Live location tracking
* Detailed mapping 
* Reporting of movements
Technology requirement:
* It is an essential requirement to be available not only on desktop via PC/Laptop but also on a mobile device via an app or other accessible API. 
* It is also essential that the raw data from our assets must be owned by the EA and should be in a format that can be shared if we need to, for use with third parties.
* There may be a requirement for GPS equipment with a high IP rating due to the nature of some of the mobile asset fleet. Additional information: Please register your interest for the tender by emailing pippa.hicks@defra.gov.uk. 

Whilst we are not intending to carry out a RFI at this stage, we would like to gauge the market and should there be sufficient interest, and RFI may be carried out.
