Marlink Group company Telemar has been awarded the contract to provide in-person and remote service support for bridge navigation equipment to NSC-Group fleet of vessels.

The service agreement provides NSC-Group with complete predictability in terms of its maintenance programme as well as scheduled service costs, enabling better planning and execution and ensuring that vessels operate safely and in regulatory compliance. “Digitalised and efficient vessel operations require reliable connectivity and certainty of service for critical bridge navigation components and systems,” said Björn Eichhorn, Director Fleet Management at NSC-Group. “Our experience with Marlink’s professional approach to connectivity and the efforts of the Telemar team to respond to our request for service were critical deciding factors.” “Marlink is delighted to have secured this further opportunity to provide our services to NSC-Group for an extended period that provides both parties with confidence for the future,” said Kai Sangkuhl, Managing Director, Telemar Electronics GmbH. “Our strong position among the shipmanagement and operations community in Germany is a reflection of the speed and quality of response to customer requests and delivery of best in class products and service.” For further information, please contact: Knut Natvig, Marlink T: +47 48 030 911 E: knut.natvig@marlink.com ABOUT USINDUSTRIESPORTFOLIOSERVICESNEWSROOMCONTACT US Contact usLegal notices CUSTOMER AREA
