Anglian Water has awarded a major AMP8 contract for sewer network monitoring sensors with an estimated value of £140.4 million.
Scope of the contract covers the supply of battery powered sewer level monitoring devices (with a minimum requirement of 5-year battery life) and sewer derived flow level monitoring devices with communications to cloud based data centre via MQTT or HTTPS being utilised if MQTT is not available.
Anglian Water has estimated that it will require the supply of circa 50-60,000 such devices over the course AMP8 between 2025 to 2030), with delivery required to any location within the Anglian Water region.
On-site services such as installation and maintenance will be carried out by Anglian Water or a 3rd party delivery route and are therefore also outside the scope of this framework.
The tender specified that all monitoring sensor devices must be suitable for deployment within the sewer network and that bidders should be mindful of the harsh environments that the monitoring sensor devices would be installed in. This included Equipment and Protective Systems Intended for Use in Potentially Explosive Atmospheres Regulations 2016 is a requirement for some locations within Anglian Water's sewer network.
Current estimated start and end contract dates are 1 October 2025 to 30 September 2027, with further possible extensions to 30 September 2031.
Metasphere Ltd, Technolog Ltd and Udlive Ltd have all been named as the successful suppliers who will be awarded contracts.
Earliest date the contract will be signed is 23 September 2025, following the standstill period which ends on 22 September 2025.
