### Request for Information (RFI)

National Grid Electricity Transmission (NGET) is developing a Digital Twin for Electrical Power systems to support transmission network design, analysis, planning, operations, and asset lifecycle management.

A critical enabler of this vision is a Network Master Model Manager: a controlled, authoritative environment used to create, govern, validate, and distribute trusted network model data (including associated metadata) across multiple engineering and operational tools.

Through the RFI, National Grid is seeking information on how your solution supports:

### Robust model governance and lifecycle management

Standards based interoperability (e.g. CIM / CGMES)

### Strong data quality controls and auditability

Secure deployment and operation at national infrastructure scale

Integration with existing planning, operations, and data platforms

Documentation outlining a request for information (RFI) will be provided to interested suppliers. Please contact  if you would like to receive the RFI documents and if you wish to submit a response.

This RFI does not constitute a formal competitive tendering process.

Should National Grid have a desire towards supplier selection and contract award, suppliers may be invited to the possible stages of pre-qualification and Request for Proposal.

Further stages are optional for National Grid.

National Grid is at the heart of a rapidly evolving energy system.

Our business units play a vital role in connecting millions of people to the energy they depend on, while continuously seeking ways to make the system cleaner and more sustainable.
