DESCRIPTION


The organization seeks a vendor to provide an AI-based leak detection solution utilizing portable field devices and a sophisticated software platform. The solution must be easy to install and set up, enabling utility staff to rapidly deploy the devices and collect data over short monitoring periods, typically up to two weeks. The system should proactively identify leaks and support non-revenue water reduction initiatives.

The software platform must use advanced analytics and artificial intelligence to accurately process acoustic or operational data from the field devices, determining the likelihood and exact location of leaks. The platform will deliver results through clear visualizations, maps, or reports to help utility staff quickly interpret findings and prioritize follow-up actions. The solution should be fully vendor-hosted, and include comprehensive implementation support such as guidance on device setup, data workflows, and infrastructure deployment best practices.

Training for utility staff on all aspects of device installation, data retrieval, software usage, and results interpretation is required. The initial contract will be for one year, with all vendor questions due by June 12, 2026.
