The layered pyramid framework illustrates stages and requirements for Digital Twin implementation. The base layer, Fundamental Requirement, describes prerequisites including understanding objectives, establishing data management standards, and ensuring organisational readiness. Supporting themes around the base include Capacity and Competence, Standards, Structured Data, and Needs and Challenges. The middle layer, Implementation and Execution, describes technical development and rollout of the Digital Twin solution, supported by Gradient Implementation and Systems integration. The top layer, Vision, describes adopting a long-term strategy to evolve the Digital Twin from a passive model into an intelligent automated system. Icons within the layers represent organisational readiness, certification, system structure, analytics, implementation growth, automation, and strategic direction.Layered strategy model for DT implementation, based on identified key elements
