Improving workflow

Kongsberg Digital is streamlining workflows in heavy-asset industries such as energy, chemicals, offshore wind, grid and carbon capture, helping businesses to improve efficiency and ultimately become more sustainable.

The company’s Industrial Work Surface software employs digital twin technology to connect data and assets with people. Users can draw on every aspect of a company’s activities to make better, faster, and more sustainable decisions, enabling them to plan, design, operate, and maintain assets.

“The future of heavy-asset industries is connected to more real-time insights – having access to a common data model across all your collaborative teams. And digital twin technology is proving time and again that it can solve these challenges,” says Shane McArdle, Kongsberg Digital CEO.

Real-time insight

Kongsberg Digital’s Industrial Work Surface tool is transforming the operations of industries, a single work surface for endless opportunities.

“Digital twin technology plays a key role in transforming how we manage heavy assets sustainably. By creating real-time virtual replicas of physical assets, we can optimize performance, predict maintenance needs, and reduce energy consumption and emissions,” says Sultan Busra Odaci, Fullstack Developer at Kongsberg Digital.

Kongsberg Digital has its headquarters in Oslo, Norway. It was founded in 2016 as part of the Norwegian technology multinational Kongsberg Group and has a global operation that employs around 700 people, based across Europe, North America, and Asia.

Collaborative powers

Scale is important to Kongsberg Digital engineers. Through their software, they see the potential to venture beyond problem-solving at company level, towards a future of wider collaboration.

“The future is about smarter collaboration – where companies share data responsibly, work more proactively, and leverage AI to optimize decisions for the benefit of all,” says McArdle.
