    "description": "WWU's current Demand Derivation System (DDS) was developed by Transco in 2002 when they owned and operated all the UKs Gas Distribution Networks (GDNs). This was a bespoke system created to work with other bespoke Network Analysis software. This software provided by Advantica / DNV was used by all GDNs after network sale in 2005. The DDS system was later developed and updated as the Integrated Demand System (IDS). All the other UK GDNs moved to this new system, but WWU chose to retain the DDS system. WWU's DDS system has now reached its end of life, does not integrate well with its surrounding systems and is extremely challenging to support or change, leading to significant manual intervention to manage certain key business processes. WWU intends to replace the current DDS system with IDS used by all the other UK GDNs. The Integrated Demand System (IDS) is a modern enterprise scale web application which allows the user to derive and manage demand data for use in network analysis software. The network analysis capability is one of WWU's Safety Case commitments and is used to make investment and operational decisions. Rationale: WWU believe services can be supplied only by a particular economic operator and competition is absent for technical reasons. Hence WWU is relying on The Utilities Contracts Regulations 2016, Regulation 50 (1)(c)(iii). WWU believes that no off-the shelf systems exist that can meet the following requirements: General Requirement * WWU are seeking a ready to use off the shelf cloud-based solution, with a product lifecycle roadmap. * WWU are seeking SaaS for 10 years. The System must be supported with patches, technical upgrades etc. throughout this period. * The solution must be Cyber secure (and comply with NIS Regulations 2018) Mandatory System requirements * The system must take customer and meter point data from Xoserve. * The system must interface with Synergi Gas. * The system must interface with OS AddressBase Premium Interface * The system must be able to calculate to peak gas demands for all consumers. * The system must forecast future gas demands. * The system must model gas demand growth. * The system must securely hold 3rd party data from other gas transporters. * The system must use proven algorithms to convert customers annual usage to a peak gas demand. * The system holds personal data and must be compliant with the Data Protection Act 2018.",
