Official UK procurement notice
ALLOY LIGHTING MANAGEMENT SYSTEM 26-28
Authority: National Highways Limited (Central government)
What is being bought
Published requirement descriptionMost street lighting on NH’s Network is un-metered, which means that electricity supplier billing (approximately £40m per year) is based upon lighting inventory data.
Estates & Facilities introduced Alloy in 2020 as a replacement to the legacy Street Lighting Database (SLD). This was to address resilience and functional concerns regarding the continued use of SLD.
Alloy is used to manage and administrate changes to the company’s lighting asset inventory data. For example, accurate reporting of LED lighting installation will result in lower carbon usage and reduced energy billing costs. It is also the initial data source for results from the national streetlighting survey currently ongoing, it is critical this service can continue.

- Published justification
National Highways have identified that a rationalisation for Asset Management Systems strategy is required and awarding a 2+1 year contract to continue is crucial for achieving the Asset Management Transformation Programme which is inflight. Work is being undertaken within National Highways to rationalise the future state of portfolio of the Asset Management Systems (AMS). National Highways current AMS portfolio is complex and asset-class-based which leads to a fragmented view of assets.
