To define the scope for this market consultation, we have adopted a functional, solution‑agnostic 
perspective. Instead of prescribing specific tools or technologies, we describe what our business units must 
be able to achieve in the domain of automated parametric design. We refer to these as functional demands, 
which we define as follows: “A solution-agnostic definition of the functionalities required by the business, 
outlining what is needed from technology without specifying how they must be implemented”. 
This approach ensures that business needs remain central while allowing the market to propose the most 
suitable combination of technologies, methodologies, and consultancy services, including support for 
improving our internal processes, workflows, and procurement approach. 
Automated parametric design consists of three such functional demands: 
• Automated parametric design  
• Design automation 
• Automated generation of drawings, parts lists and BoM.  
The scope of this Market Consultation is primarily focused on automated parametric design and the 
implementation of a new operating model for insulator strings. The objective is to gain insight into market 
capabilities to automate and optimize the design process, with the aim of significantly reducing lead times 
from design to realization. Insulator strings have been identified as the initial focus area due to their potential 
to deliver the highest and fastest return on investment through automation. Following the successful 
implementation for insulator strings, the organization intends to progressively extend automated parametric 
design to additional asset components, including but not limited to mechanical tower components, civil 
works, and foundations. 
Respondents to this Market Consultation are therefore requested to: 
• Primarily address their proposed solutions and capabilities related to automated parametric design 
for insulator strings; 
• Provide a high-level future roadmap describing how their solution could be scaled or extended to 
support automated parametric design for other components; and 
• Provide a high-level implementation strategy.</cbc:Description><cbc:Description languageID="ENG">Selectie met onderhandelingsprocedure.</cbc:Description></cac:TenderingProcess><cac:ProcurementProject><cbc:ID>b7ec3519-c225-4c29-ac2c-899edcd465b6</cbc:ID><cbc:Name languageID="NLD">Market Consultation - Automated Parametric Design</cbc:Name><cbc:Name languageID="ENG">Market consultation CRM</cbc:Name><cbc:Description languageID="NLD">See scope document market consultation further defined in paragraph 1.2:
