• A monitoring capability that incorporates an automated response to alerts; • A national wide induction and fitting service to issue, replace and remove devices. This will be inclusive of briefing covering battery charging and other actions to avoid non-compliance; • A field service that can respond to alerts; and
• A suite of Management Information reports including a self-service capability for the Authority to access data and reports.
