Tenders Are Invited For Dynamic Procurement System: Remote Monitoring And Management Of Waterway Safety Devices

The Object Of This Dynamic Acquisition System (Dhj) Is The Remote Monitoring And Management Of Waterway Safety Equipment. The Object Of Dhj Is Described In More Detail In The Request For Participation And Its Attachments. The Finnish Railways Agency Mainly Takes Care Of The Maintenance Of The Finnish Waterway Network. There Are A Total Of Approximately 8,200 Km Of Coastal Waterways And Approximately 8,000 Km Of Inland Waterways Maintained By The Finnish Railways Agency, I.E. A Total Of Approximately 16,200 Km. There Are About 4,100 Km Of These Commercial Shipping Lanes. The Norwegian Shipping Agency Manages The Waterways, Which Are Divided Into Waterway Classes (Vl) 1–6. There Are Approximately 25,500 Waterway Safety Devices On The Waterways. Lane Maintenance Is The Maintenance Of Safety Equipment, Which Focuses On Periodic Checks, Maintenance Visits And Repairing Defects. The Faults Are Mostly Light Failures Of Illuminated Safety Devices And Breakages And Displacements Of Floating Safety Devices. Failure Or Displacement Of Remotely Monitored Safety Devices Is Known In Real Time, Which Shortens Failure Times And Improves Safety. By Monitoring The Status Of The Safety Device, It Is Possible To Anticipate Problems, Schedule Maintenance Procedures Correctly And Possibly Even Prevent Failure. The Observability Of Remotely Controlled Security Devices Improves When The Light Output Can Be Adjusted According To The Conditions (Fog, Snow, Background Light, Etc.) Remote Monitoring Is Mainly Used With Illuminated Security Devices On The Main Commercial Shipping Lanes. There Are About 1,500 Lighted Safety Devices In Class 1, Of Which Almost 1,000 Are Floating. There Are Approximately 2,050 Remotely Monitored Security Devices, Of Which 160 Are Remotely Controlled.
