Evaluación del Estado Actual: Realizar una evaluación integral y basada en evidencia de las\ntecnologías operativas existentes de CNEL (medición, integración de recursos energéticos\ndistribuidos y automatización de la distribución), la red de área de campo y las comunicaciones, las\ncapacidades operativas, la preparación organizacional y la infraestructura de datos. Esta\nevaluación se sustentará en la información existente de CNEL (Diagramas de Arquitectura, GIS,\ntopología de redes y datos de los sistemas), en talleres y reuniones con los especialistas técnicos\nde la institución, actividades que podrán complementarse con reconocimiento de instalaciones en\ncampo. Cuantificar las brechas de rendimiento en relación con empresas de servicios públicos\nsimilares y los puntos de referencia regulatorios, y producir un registro de riesgos priorizado que\nsirva de base para las decisiones de planificación posteriores.\n\n2. Definición de la Arquitectura del Estado Objetivo: Definir una arquitectura de red digital de\nestado futuro que integre una Infraestructura de Medición Avanzada (AMI) con capacidad de\ncomunicación bidireccional, integración con el sistema de gestión de la medición (MDM), con un\nSistema Avanzado de Gestión de Distribución (ADMS) y un Sistema de Gestión de Interrupciones\n(OMS), un Sistema de Gestión de Recursos Energéticos Distribuidos (DERMS), SCADA,\nautomatización de la distribución y capacidades de inteligencia en el borde de la red (grid-edge\nintelligence), una red de comunicaciones que respalde las operaciones del área de campo de CNEL,\nuna plataforma unificada de datos y análisis, y una arquitectura de ciberseguridad alineada con los\nestándares regulatorios aplicables, prever la interoperabilidad con los sistemas existentes y\nfuturos, considerando el análisis de riesgos tecnológicos con el fin de establecer diferentes\nescenarios de decisión.\n3. Hoja de Ruta de Modernización de Cinco Años: Desarrollar una hoja de ruta quinquenal,\nsecuenciada y basada en iniciativas, que traduzca la arquitectura del estado objetivo en un plan de\nejecución estructurado. La hoja de ruta definirá iniciativas por fases con límites de alcance claros,\ninterdependencias, requisitos de recursos, implicaciones de cambio organizacional y métricas de\néxito medibles; proporcionando tanto una narrativa estratégica a nivel ejecutivo como una guía de\nimplementación operativa. El horizonte de cinco años es prioritario, no obstante, la firma\nconsultora recomendará, de forma fundamentada y según su experiencia, el plazo total de\nimplementación, el cual podrá exceder los 5 años.\n4. Estrategia de Inversión y Financiamiento: Construir un modelo financiero riguroso que\ncuantifique los requerimientos totales de gastos de capital (CapEx) y gastos operativos (OpEx) de la\ncapa tecnológica objeto de la consultoría (Los cuatro componentes AMI y AMI 2.0,\nComunicaciones, DERMS y Ciberseguridad) a lo largo del horizonte del programa, proyectando los\nbeneficios incluida la reducción sustentada de pérdidas no técnicas atribuible al despliegue\njustificado de AMI y el costo de la inacción, y el retorno de la inversión bajo múltiples escenarios, y\nevaluando la gama completa de mecanismos de financiamiento disponibles, incluyendo:\nrecuperación de capital regulatorio, financiamiento de bancos multilaterales de desarrollo,\nestructuras de asociaciones público-privadas (APP) y programas de subvenciones\ngubernamentales.\n5. Marco de Gobernanza y Gestión del Programa: Establecer estructuras de gobernanza, disciplinas\nde gestión de programas y enfoques de gestión del cambio organizacional que permitan la\nejecución efectiva del programa de modernización una vez concluido este contrato de consultoría,\nasegurando que los resultados de este trabajo se traduzcan en un impulso de implementación\nsostenido. Como parte de este marco, la Firma Consultora entregará, dentro del Producto 1, un\nPlan de Transferencia de Conocimiento formal que asegure la participación activa del equipo\ntécnico y de TI de CNEL EP en la elaboración de la arquitectura objetivo y la hoja de ruta. El Plan\ncontemplará talleres estructurados de transferencia por dominio (AMI/AMI 2.0, DERMS,\ncomunicaciones y ciberseguridad industrial), con objetivos, participantes y cronograma; y criterios\nde verificación del cumplimiento del Plan. La capacitación técnica profunda para la operación y\nconfiguración de las soluciones corresponde a las fases posteriores de implementación del\nprograma de modernización, las cuales se encuentran fuera del alcance de esta consultoría.\n\nEl/La Ministerio de Energia y Recursos Naturales No Renovablesinvita a las firmas consultoras\nelegibles a expresar su interés en prestar los servicios solicitados.
