## Description
One of the challenges that NGN have in managing their assets is that they are frequently covered up or built over by the likes of the local authorities or other utility companies during reinstatement or repair works, meaning that they may be difficult to locate should there an urgent need. This particular equipment provides a solution to enable NGN to monitor assets consistently. This product "Valve Track" is a piece of hardware that is retrofitted into the valve chamber to allow valves and other underground assets to be quickly located in the form of an ATEX approved, IP68 rated, decoded Bluetooth beacon connected to a cloud-based platform. This equipment is proprietary to the supplying organisation and is subsequently unavailable elsewhere. The contract includes the long term provision of monitoring services, software and support.
