About this tender
Waterschap Vechtstromen is running a market consultation (marktconsultatie) to learn what the market can offer for a future tender for the management of its groundwater monitoring network (Beheer Grondwatermeetnet). The consultation is preparatory and does not itself award a contract. The planned contract covers continuing the collection, storage, checking/validation and provision of reliable groundwater level measurements. It also includes maintenance of the monitoring network, installing any new measurement points, and decommissioning measurement points that are no longer needed. The current network consists entirely of automatic (telemetric) measurement points, of which 512 are currently active. Vechtstromen wants to keep this method of data acquisition but does not want to commit in advance to the specific equipment, software or data transfer methods currently in use.
Key requirements
- ✓Continuous collection, storage, validation and provision of reliable groundwater-level measurements
- ✓Maintenance of automated telemetric monitoring network (512 active points)
- ✓Installation of new measurement points and decommissioning of obsolete points
- ✓Technology-agnostic approach; no lock-in to current equipment, software or data-transmission methods
