## About this tender

BACKGROUND:

Severn Trent Water and Hafren Dyfrdwy (the Utilities) are seeking to publish a PIN notice and conduct a soft market testing exercise as permitted by regulations 58 and 59 of the Utilities Contracts Regulations 2016 to understand the opportunity to improve metering coverage, connectivity, provide greater visibility through more frequent water consumption data, in line with our 2035 vision for 100% meter coverage.

The Utilities are looking to engage with multiple industries to identify potential suppliers who have current or emerging technical capabilities in this area. The aim of the PIN and soft market testing is to conduct market consultations with a view to preparing a potential future procurement activity in relation to this emerging technology. This PIN is not limited to participants of previous trials as the Utilities are keen to understand full market awareness.

PROJECT DETAILS AND PROBLEM STATEMENT:

The utilities are looking to roll-out AMI (Advanced Metering Infrastructure) smart meters as part of the Green Recovery initiative in the areas of Coventry and Warwickshire. The goal is to install 157,000 smart meters by 31st March 2025 and intend to do this at pace with installation estimated to commence by March 2022 to reach around 30,000 meters by end of May 2022.

At a high level, the Utilities are looking at better understanding the ability of the market to deliver in 4 areas as detailed in the Utilities' requirement:

- Meter devices (Lot 1)
- Data Communications (Lot 2)
- Installation and commissioning (Lot 3)
- Analytics and behavioural change (Lot 4)

The areas of strategic consideration may also include (but are not limited to) the following:

- Reduce demand for water by:

 Reducing leakage on our network

 Helping customers to reduce their usage

- Improve the accuracy of consumption data to enable more efficient operational leakage targeting
- Reduce the amount of time it takes for us to identify leaks on both customer supply pipes and internal plumbing
- Continually and consistently receive data needed in order to enable a smart network
- Support the water efficiency programme via identification of trends in water consumption and highlighting high or unusual consumption
- Improve the customer experience through the provision of advanced technology

The Utilities wish to develop a high level of understanding of the technology market and identify suppliers who can demonstrate their capability to deliver an AMI solution which answers the Utilities' problem statement and requirement.
