Data-sharing among planners and planning software for utility companies is the motivation for creating the Integrated Standardized Database (ISD) and Model Management System (MMS). The purpose of this document is to define the requirements for the ISD/MMS study management component in a manner that will enhance the use of the ISD. After an analysis period which involved EPRI member utilities across the United States, the study concept was formulated. It is defined in terms of its entities, relationships and its support processes, specifically for implementation as the key component of the MMS. From the study concept definition, requirements are derived. There are unique requirements, such as the necessity to interface with DSManager, EGEAS, IRPManager, MIDAS and UPM and there are standard information systems requirements, such as create, modify, delete and browse data. An initial ordering of the requirements is established, with a section devoted to future enhancements.
