2726 - Digital and Data Framework

The purpose of this lot is to utilise the open-source namespace framework developed by AMRC and integrate the packaging rig within a data-hub (See https://factoryplus.app.amrc.co.uk/ for a full description of the framework). Alternative approaches to a purely opensource solution will be considered providing the overall philosophy of the framework is upheld. Where possible, multiple options for the hardware and connectivity modules stated in the URS should be suppled.

A standardised data historian including process monitoring software that can be configured by an automation engineer to interface with the PLCs, IPCs, and SCADA/DCS system that comprises the packaging line. Please provide multiple, best in class, options for monitoring/historian software, along with a number of hardware options that are reasonable, based on the value of this lot

The purpose of this Lot is to provide CPI with technical consultancy and support across all of the themes covered by Lots 1-3 and provide a means for reviewing implementation plans, network infrastructure, cybersecurity, and overall systems architecture
