Kongsberg signs NDLO support agreements
Kongsberg has signed two new agreements with the Norwegian Defence Logistics Organisation (NDLO), the company announced on 18 December.
The first is a framework agreement for follow on technical support for the Norwegian armed forces. The company will support the armed forces with maintenance and engineering services for equipment on board navy vessels, including missile systems, weapon stations, C2 and navigation systems.
The agreement continues and expands Kongsberg’s previously signed framework agreement.
The second agreement was signed between Kongsberg Aviation Maintenance Services and NDLO and is related to maintenance and support of the Norwegian NH90 helicopter fleet. The agreement will initially apply for the years 2020-2026, and there will be annual calls from the agreement.
Maintenance will mainly be carried out at the Bardufoss main base, with the goal of increasing the operational availability of the NH90 helicopters.
Eirik Lie, CEO, Kongsberg Defense & Aerospace, said: ‘Both agreements are the result of a long-term commitment to maintenance and preparedness by both the Norwegian armed forces and Kongsberg, and they lay grounds for further development of expertise in the area.’
