Description

You are invited to submit a tender for providing the Authority with flow monitoring design & installation services.

We are seeking to appoint a number of suppliers to a flow monitoring design & installation framework for structures (predominantly weirs) and associated infrastructure (i.e. stilling tubes and/or gauge boards) and associated enabling works at sites across the UK which will run for four years from September 2017.

The Services requirements have been divided into 4 regions across the two disciplines of Design & Installation (map provided for further information)
1. North
2. Central
3. Wales & West Midlands
4. South West
Tenderers can submit an Expression of Interest covering one, all, or any number of regions and activities

The majority of monitoring sites are in remote upland locations without electricity or other services. Thin plate weirs are the primary method utilised to measure flows at existing sites, although other installations may be required in certain circumstances.

Installations may require provision of suitable access i.e. steps, trackway etc.

Many monitoring points have loggers installed to provide continuous flow measurements and these are downloaded when our technician visits site to take measurements and water samples.
