## Summary

Trinity House, headquartered in London, has initiated the planning stage for a new procurement process titled "CM12 (T0545) Central Monitoring and Control System" under the industry category of Monitoring and Control Services. This project focuses on the specialised area of providing remote control and monitoring systems for marine aids to navigation across the waters of England, Wales, the Channel Islands, and Gibraltar. The current system is centrally managed from their 24/7 Operations Planning Centre located in Harwich, Essex. The procurement timeline remains flexible, hinged on the responses gathered from an initial Request for Information (RFI) exercise, with a potential future notice date set for 30 June 2025.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in remote monitoring and control systems, telemetry data analysis, and marine navigation aids. Companies with experience in developing and implementing such systems can leverage this project to enhance their market presence and establish long-term partnerships with a prominent public body like Trinity House. Additionally, businesses proficient in lone-worker monitoring solutions and operational cost reductions through automated systems will find this tender particularly beneficial. Interested suppliers are encouraged to engage early by submitting their interest via email to receive the necessary RFI documents for further consideration.

## Notice

Trinity House are currently looking into the availability and market options for the Remote Control and Monitoring System for our Aids to Navigation. Trinity House currently operate a Central Monitoring and Control System (CMCS), which is centrally monitored by a 24/7 Operations and Planning Centre at Harwich. This allows the monitoring of marine aids to navigation in the waters of England, Wales, the Channel Islands and Gibraltar. Each monitored site/station utilises out-station telemetry units, which enables the remote operation of the fixed navigational aid and allows for observations for reliability and performance.

### Lot Information

Lot 1

Trinity House are looking into availability and market options for remote control and monitoring systems for our Aids to Navigation. We currently use a Central Monitoring and Control System (CMCS) for the collection and analysis of operational telemetry data from Trinity House sites around England, Wales and the Channel Islands. This is centrally controlled by the 24/7 Operations Planning Centre at Trinity House's offices in Harwich, Essex. Each monitored site/station utilises out-station telemetry units, which allow the real-time communication of aid's and operating parameters. The system allows the remote operation of fixed navigational aids, thereby significantly reducing the level of human intervention required for each site (and the associated costs of operation) and is used to establish operational trends, including power availability (by analysing battery charge levels) and generation (by checking solar panel performance). This CMCS also supports Trinity House's lone-worker monitoring obligations, which is essential when using contracted attendants for call-outs and general housekeeping duties. Additional information: Any interested supplier should email their intention into etender@trinityhouse.co.uk where a Request for Information document will be sent out for completion and return. Tender timescales will be dependent on the information received as a result of the 'Request for Information' exercise.
