Andel is a Danish group with 1.800 employees which among others delivers power to businesses and private households in the geographical area Greater Copenhagen, Zealand, Lolland-Falster and Mon.
Andel has in 2020 acquired Radius from Ørsted A/S. After the merger, the Meter Data Management (MDM) platforms need replacement and joined into a new, common strategy. Andel envisions the new MDM Solution as a critical tool for Andel to be able to follow and drive the future metering and data collection in Denmark.
The power network is divided into 2 main separate networks developed and maintained by Cerius with 450.000 meters and Radius with 1.000.000 meters respectively.
Andel wishes to acquire a new and complete MDM Solution which will be integrated in Andel’s IT enterprise system landscape.
Andel expects that demands for metering data will increase in the coming years. Fluctuations of consumption, production and pricing of energy will rise. Installations with local production will add to the complexity of modelling and documenting the flow in the grid. Reducing the bio fossil-based energy sources will raise demands for utilization and capacity of the Danish Transmission and Distribution grid. Andel expects the future metering to be based on multiple meter models distributed in the grid. These multiple meter models will communicate meter readings and events via multiple Head End Systems. The new MDM Solution will collect and manage data from different networks and meter models.
On this basis Andel wishes to acquire a new and complete MDM Solution which will be integrated in Andel’s IT enterprise system landscape.
The new and complete Meter Data Management (MDM) Solution consist of 1) Meter Data Management System (MDM System) and 2) Head End System.
The Head End System is an IT-system that controls the communication to all concentrators and meters, communicates the data to Meter Data Management System, and is used to control firmware and configuration in meters. This Head End System shall cover 3.000 meters and will be a supplement to other existing Head End Systems. The Head End System  shall be provided on a On-Premise basis.
The MDM System is a Meter Data Management System for Cerius (and optional Radius). The MDM System performs long term data storage and management for data collected from the Head End System. The data consists primarily of energy time series data, technical data and events. The MDM System will import the data, then validate, cleanse and process it before making it available for different purposes and systems. The MDM System is the key component between meters, distribution grid systems, the Danish DataHub and backend systems like SAP and GIS. The MDM System shall include management of several separate distribution networks. The MDM System shall be provided on a Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) basis or a similar service model where the supplier also delivers operation/hosting (see below for further).
The MDM Solution includes interfaces, security components etc. and shall ensure compliance to Danish legislation and development in standard data exchange with the Danish DataHub.
The MDM System must be a supplier centric model, i.e. force split between distribution grid and sales.
The MDM Solution shall be implemented, and migration of relevant data shall be delivered as a part of the MDM-project. The migration consists mainly of migrating meter data and formulas from older Cerius MDM System to the new MDM System.
The supplier shall deliver Continuous Services (support, maintenance and operation).  Continuing Services for the MDM System includes support, maintenance and operation. Continuing Services for the Head End System includes support and maintenance, while the Head End System is operated by Andel or a third-party supplier.
a)	Delivery of an MDM Solution that consist of Head End System and Meter Data Management System (MDM System).
