02Strategic insight

Strategic insight · AI analysis
Focus on technical integration and demonstrating end-to-end data verification (field to WML endpoint). Ensure a robust design for observation wells where the 5-year battery life is substantiated with realistic field parameters. Take into account the different technical requirements per lot, such as the real-time requirement for pumping wells versus the battery power for observation wells.
Read automatically from the tender documents using AI. Always verify against the original documents.

03Points of attention

Important · 7
The assignment is split into two lots (pumping wells and observation wells).Important
The demarcation line is at the network connection where the communication module transmits data to the WML endpoint(s).Important
For NB-IoT, WML provides the SIM cards as direct supply.Important
When using LoRa, WML is responsible for the range.Important
The battery capacity for observation wells must be at least 5 years at the configured frequencies.Important
Photo registration of measurement points must not contain persons, license plates, or privacy-sensitive information.Important
Adjustments to well constructions are only within scope if strictly necessary for a reliable data connection.Important
