PP250165 Request for Information (RFI) Operational Support System

Summary and scope

Powerlink’s network is currently using a telecommunications Operations Support System (OSS) to support the operations of the Powerlink telecommunications network. The existing OSS has been in place for over a decade. Powerlink are now seeking to learn if alternative solutions are available in the market that can meet our requirements. This RFI is part of a lightweight desktop review process aimed at identifying potential vendors and solutions that can provide oversight of our telecoms assets, including impact analysis capabilities for network changes. We are open to exploring both integrated platforms and modular toolsets. This RFI is not a commitment to purchase but a preliminary step to assess market capabilities and inform future procurement decisions. The Scope of this RFI can be located in the RFI documents attached. By engaging in this RFI process you acknowledge and agree that: (a) the information you receive from Powerlink as part of this process is confidential; and (b) you will keep all the information received strictly confidential; and (c) you must not, and ensure that your personnel do not, access, use or reproduce any of the confidential information for any purpose other than as strictly required to engage in this process.
