At the GSI Helmholtz Centre, civil engineering, research, plant engineering and operations work in separate data and tool environments. "Twin+" does not replace these systems but places an integration layer on top of them. The existing building and asset data remain in their respective domain systems and are made accessible across disciplines through an access layer based on the Model Context Protocol (MCP), because what is unified is the access, not the tool. This takes Building Information Modelling (BIM) a step further. Where BIM structures building information in a model-based way, Twin+ opens that space to disciplines without BIM: AI agents translate between the domain languages and ground their answers in verified as-built data via Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG). Manual searches across system boundaries are thereby eliminated, and the Federated Digital Twin evolves from a passive data model into a proactive, source-referenced basis for decision-making.
