Lot LOT-0001
No lot description published.
Anglian Water operates over 6000 sites, spread over a large geographic area, from the Humber to the Thames estuary. Over the years, significant efficiencies have been made to the operational running through advances in technology and automation. An outcome of these advancements has seen the need for fewer operational staff to maintain expected levels of service. As a consequence of these advancements, it is now a fairly common occurrence for operational employees to be sent to site working on their own - and become a 'Lone Worker' (LW). There is a risk that an incident or accident may occur impacting the LW's health and safety that requires help and assistance. As part of its duty of care Anglian Water has a Mobile Phone Lone Worker System that is used by its 3,000 (approx.) workers that have the potential to be a LW. Before starting a job and once on site the system is activated by the LW using his company mobile phone to record his location and to set an alert time period that is then monitored centrally by the Operational Management Centre (OMC) team in Lincoln. An alert is raised by the system if the LW doesn't update using his mobile before the end of the set period or if a panic button is pressed - an escalation procedure is then followed by the OMC to make contact and if necessary find the LW.

| LOT-0001 | Control, safety, signalling and light equipment, Safety equipment | Not published |
Benchmarked against retained Find a Tender procedures with CPV division 34. The category anchor is Control, safety, signalling and light equipment (34990000); this is a deliberately broad market comparator. The comparison is shown at several levels rather than pretending one company or region is always the best benchmark.
| Comparison set | Procedures | Reported bids per procedure | Named award suppliers | Price evidence |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Market: CPV division 34 | 2,087 | 3 median · 20.6 average (647 of 2,087 with a bid count) | 3.5 average (711 of 2,087 with named award suppliers) | Not published |
| Same buyer | 1 | Not published | Not published | Not published |
| Delivery region: UK | 456 | 4 median · 63.5 average (120 of 456 with a bid count) | 6.4 average (138 of 456 with named award suppliers) | Not published |
| Similar published value (0.5×–2×) | 152 | 1 median · 2 average (5 of 152 with a bid count) | 1 average (6 of 152 with named award suppliers) | Not published |
“Reported bids” is an official aggregate, sometimes reported per lot; it is the closest available competition measure. “Named award suppliers” are winners, not all applicants.
Not enough comparable procedures currently publish both a GBP tender value and a usable lowest-valid-bid value to calculate a responsible price-reduction benchmark. Tenderline deliberately does not infer a saving from named award suppliers or from missing award values.

"description": "Anglian Water operates over 6000 sites, spread over a large geographic area, from the Humber to the Thames estuary. Over the years, significant efficiencies have been made to the operational running through advances in technology and automation. An outcome of these advancements has seen the need for fewer operational staff to maintain expected levels of service. As a consequence of these advancements, it is now a fairly common occurrence for operational employees to be sent to site working on their own – and become a ‘Lone Worker’ (LW). There is a risk that an incident or accident may occur impacting the LW’s health and safety that requires help and assistance.</span>\nAs part of its duty of care Anglian Water has a Mobile Phone Lone Worker System that is used by its 3,000 (approx.) workers that have the potential to be a LW. Before starting a job and once on site the system is activated by the LW using his company mobile phone to record his location and to set an alert time period that is then monitored centrally by the Operational Management Centre (OMC) team in Lincoln. An alert is raised by the system if the LW doesn’t update using his mobile before the end of the set period or if a panic button is pressed - an escalation procedure is then followed by the OMC to make contact and if necessary find the LW.",
