Use case

Simplify bid management with FieldTwin Collaborate

Transform how you manage competitive bids by connecting operators and EPCs on one secure platform

Bidding complexity, simplified

Independent operators face significant challenges when preparing bidding rounds with multiple EPC companies. The process requires sharing extensive field data, managing information security, and evaluating diverse proposals that often arrive from different programs and in various formats. Traditional approaches lead to data inconsistencies, comparison difficulties, and inefficient evaluation processes that delay critical decisions.

Focused on fair competition

FieldTwin Collaborate provides a digital workspace that enables operators to share standardized field information with multiple bidders while maintaining separation between competitors. With secure, controlled access, centralized data sharing, and unified visualization, FieldTwin Collaborate ensures all participants work from the same information while preserving the confidentiality needed for competitive bidding.

How it works

Following the bidding journey

An independent operator is preparing a competitive bidding round with three EPC companies for a new field development project.

FieldTwin Collaborate brings together operators and multiple EPCs to facilitate fair, efficient bidding processes while maintaining competitive integrity. Here's how FieldTwin Collaborate transforms their approach to the bidding process:

Creating the digital foundation

The operator establishes a comprehensive digital twin containing all essential project information - bathymetry, seabed obstructions, reservoir data, existing infrastructure, and well positioning. This becomes the standardized foundation that ensures all bidders have equal access to the same high-quality information, eliminating discrepancies that typically arise from sharing multiple file formats across different systems.
Inviting partners to the platform

With a few clicks, the operator invites all three EPC companies to collaborate, each with their own secure access to the project. Each competitor can access the same base model independently, ensuring a level playing field while maintaining complete separation between bidders. No EPC can see another's work, preserving the competitive integrity of the process.
Real-time design and feedback

Each EPC immediately begins developing their proposed solution directly in FieldTwin. The platform's visualization capabilities allow them to create detailed field layouts, test different approaches, and optimize their designs. All work happens in a consistent environment using the same tools, eliminating compatibility issues that typically hinder bidding rounds.
Cross-disciplinary proposal development

Engineering teams within each EPC collaborate internally to refine their proposals, developing integrated solutions that address technical, operational, and financial requirements. The platform enables secure internal sharing while maintaining strict separation between competing companies, ensuring confidentiality throughout the process.
Streamlined selection process

When the submission deadline arrives, each EPC shares their completed proposal with the operator through FieldTwin Collaborate. The operator can now evaluate all proposals in the same platform, making direct comparisons using consistent visualization and data structures. This dramatically simplifies the selection process, allowing for more accurate and efficient decision-making without the need to reconcile different formats and tools.

The impact

Equal opportunity

Provide all bidders with identical starting information, creating a level playing field that focuses competition on solution quality rather than data access.

Simplified evaluation

Compare competing proposals side-by-side in the same environment, eliminating the need to reconcile different formats and presentation styles.

Secured competition

Maintain strict separation between competing EPCs while providing a common platform, preserving confidentiality throughout the bidding process.

Smooth handover

Move directly from bid selection to project execution using the winning proposal as the foundation, eliminating rework and speeding up the development timeline.
