Title : RFI: Solutions for production planning and dispatching of trains
Description : Vygruppen has initiated the project 'Close the Gap' (CTG). CTG will deliver tomorrow's system support for production planning and train operations. The project's goal is to enable cost-effective, comprehensive, and secure production planning and dispatch, create customer value, engage employees, and allow us to adapt to changing circumstances. The project originates from a strategic initiative where Vygruppen conducted a Request for Information (RFI) in June 2020. As part of the concept phase of the CTG project, a new RFI was conducted in May 2024. These RFIs were followed up with a supplier conference on May 28, 2025. The project is in the planning phase, focusing on developing plans and strategies to realize the chosen concept. This RFI is an important part of this process. Vygruppen AS and the Close the Gap project invite all suppliers who can meet all or part of the needs presented in this RFI to participate and submit a response. Both established companies with proven solutions and startups are welcome to respond.

This information will be used to ensure that: - The requirements in the upcoming procurement are realistic and in line with the solutions and services offered in the market - An understanding of the costs of acquiring and implementing a new solution for production planning and dispatch - Using suppliers' responses and input to create a realistic description of our future production planning and dispatch Please log in to Vygruppens procurement system Ivalua to see the documents and to be updated with questions and answers, and new information.
