15 1. Description of the systems Part III Technical Specifications The systems (2) should be able to monitor the water level of the selected river in different points, 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. The system should identify an increase or decrease on water level and flow of the river and send the information, on real time, to a central command controller (a computer with server and software that displays on the screen data that are transmitted from the sensor) which will be in charge of activating sirens that will alert communities living near the river bank. The sirens should be able to reach communities on long distances of at least a 5 mile radius and also warnings must be provided in English and local language. The local language must be recorded and sent to the provider in mp3. Data should reach a central command controller (prevention and management of disasters) for an effective and timely community response. The central controller must have a microphone linked to the siren so that staff can use the siren to alert the communities on any other disasters rather than floods, or make community announcements on health, education or agriculture issues. The complete systems should be able to be powered by solar energy. 2. Components a. River Level Sensor: Radar or built-in sensors with the ability of transmitting, on real time, information using wires or available frequencies (preferably VHF frequencies). Low power consumption and rugged enough to resist the environment. b. Central station controller: Receive information from the sensors (using different communication protocols) determine if there is an increase of the water level, compare it with the pre-defined Page 15 of 16

16 water level trigger and activate the sirens if the increase is positive. At the same time, the information should reach the central command controller so stakeholders can be informed and monitor the situation. They should also be able to activate the sirens if due to any reason they have not been activated yet. That is they should be able to see on the monitor the level of water that will lead to flooding. The staff must be able to use a microphone linked to the siren to make announcements. c. Sirens: Omnidirectional (360o degrees coverage) and be mounted in a high pole of at least 20 meters. Sound power must be potent as it must be heard from very long distances. Distortion should be minimum. Activated by different communication protocols. Low power consumption. The siren should be solar powered. 3. Delivery Terms INCOTERM 2010 CIP Kenneth Kaunda International Airport (LUN), Lusaka, Republic of Zambia. 4. Local transport and civil works Local transport and civil work will be performed by a local supplier and shall not be included in the Bid.
