A digital twin RFP should not simply ask for a platform. It should specify business objectives, target use cases, current systems, data/model environment, required integrations, target architecture, cybersecurity, functional and non-functional requirements, implementation expectations, testing, training, support, and acceptance criteria.
Vendors should be evaluated on utility domain fit, technical fit, integration capability, cybersecurity maturity, implementation approach, product maturity, references, support model, and total cost of ownership.
TwinGrid helps utilities prepare comparable procurement packages before vendor responses arrive.
