Overview

GNS Science (GNS) is New Zealand’s leading provider of Earth, geoscience and isotope research and is seeking to identify a suitable vendor to provide Remote Monitoring services. This RFP sets out GNS specific requirements designed to provide an enhanced Remote Monitoring as part of our continual health & safety improvement plans.
This procurement project relates to the sourcing and implementation of a single nationwide platform for tracking, locating, two-way communication and emergency response activation with staff working in the field across the full geographic coverage of the GNS operations.
For our staff working in the field we currently deploy multiple means to cater for the broad and diverse geographic coverage of our operations. The tools we use include:
• Mobile and satellite phones, and two-way radios for communication.
• Devices for tracking, locating and communicating, e.g. inReach
• Personal Locator Beacons (PLB) and
• Emergency Position Indicating Radio Beacon (EPIRB) for emergency response
To further enhance health & safety, we are seeking to establish local monitoring of field teams on a 24/7 basis – services that are currently monitored by our National Geohazard Monitoring team (NGMC) and outside their current mandate.
Our objective is to ensure that communication, tracking and emergency response is supported by regional, national and international emergency response protocols ideally, through an integrated single technology platform.
The solution must include the implementation and management of cohesive emergency response and remote worker risk management. Ideally, this will complement and enhance our current communication capabilities.
