{mprestriction ids="1,2"}The partnership will see the companies offer shipping customers digital solutions to optimise performance and allow them to have more secure and sustainable operations.

The collaboration will bridge KONGSBERG’s Kognifai and DNV GL’s Veracity platforms to strengthen the quality of both infrastructures and enhance the number of value-adding solutions and services for customers while they stay in control of their data.

“KONGSBERG’s Kognifai and DNV GL’s Veracity will, combined, give customers access to platform capabilities and an ecosystem of value enhancing services. This partnership will significantly enhance our customers’ opportunities for digitalisation. Together we have 350 years of experience, we have deep domain knowledge, and with this partnership we will enhance customer value,” commented Geir Håøy, president and CEO of KONGSBERG.

“In DNV GL we will develop our class services and other technical assurance services through increased collection and processing of the digital information being made available. Transparency and collaboration on the data value chain is a big challenge. The fear of losing competitive advantage through sharing of insights offered by data keeps the data in silos. But sharing should be encouraged and this is part of the intention behind secure, well governed platforms like Veracity and Kognifai and the reason for collaborating to support the digital transformation of the maritime industry,” said Remi Eriksen, group president and CEO, DNV GL.{/mprestriction}
