## Summary

The United Kingdom Atomic Energy Authority is currently seeking proposals for the project titled "WP3.5.2 Novel Techniques and Technologies for Incorporating Sensor Data into Digital Twins." This procurement falls under the services category, specifically in the software and information systems industry. The tender process is currently at the active stage, with submissions due by 29 April 2022. Interested parties should note that the contract period is set to commence on 22 June 2022 and will end on 30 November 2023. The procurement method is an open procedure, allowing for a wide range of bidders.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses involved in software development, particularly those specialising in innovative sensor data integration and digital twin technologies. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) as well as voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) are encouraged to participate, as their innovative solutions could enhance the de-risking of operations in this domain. Companies with expertise in analytical, industrial control, and image-processing software would be particularly well-suited to compete in this tender, enabling them to contribute to cutting-edge projects in the evolving field of digital twins.

## Notice

As part of the LongOps project, it is required to develop de-risking virtual tools such as a digital-twin systems linked to a real system interacting directly with the real world. In order to maintain an accurate, up-to-date digital twin, it is necessary to sense the real environment in real-time using a variety of sensors of different types, to compile an accurate combined model of the environment virtually, and to present this information to the operator in the most effective manner. Due to the effects of radiation and other inherent qualities of sensing devices, the data retrieved is expected to be inexact. Characteristics such as noise, reliability, confidence interval, linearity, etc., may affect the estimation of the digital-twin state. UKAEA wishes to procure innovative solutions for the development of novel, cutting-edge sensor data integration and perception techniques to support the de-risking of operations using digital twins.
