[STOCKHOLM, SWEDEN, September 4, 2025] – Eurostep, part of BAE Systems Digital Intelligence, has been awarded a contract by the Norwegian Defence Materiel Agency (NDMA) to deliver DIGIMAT, a futureproofed, standardised cloud service for the secure, automated and quality-assured collection of defence materiel data.
DIGIMAT will strengthen NDMA’s collaboration with defence equipment suppliers by ensuring access to accurate, validated information that supports the operational capability of the Norwegian Armed Forces.
Dag Øyvind Hagen, Assistant Director/Head of the Materiel Information Department and Project Owner of the DIGIMAT project said: “DIGIMAT is a strategic digitisation initiative within NDMA and the Armed Forces. As outlined in NDMA’s Business Case for DIGIMAT, the new IT tool is expected to reduce time-consuming processes related to collecting data from our suppliers, as well as improving data quality by ensuring it is in a standardised format. We believe Eurostep and its well-proven solution, ShareAspace, will meet our expectations.”
With a strong track record in the defence sector, Eurostep’s capabilities – delivered through its ShareAspace platform – enable multiple organisations to collaborate and share data in a controlled way throughout an asset or product’s lifecycle. This functionality provides an ideal foundation for DIGIMAT, underpinning contracting-for-information across the Norwegian defence supply chain.
Simon Pettersson, Defence Industry Vertical Director, Eurostep said: “We are proud to have been awarded the contract to deliver a secure cloud service for NDMA. The vision and requirements of DIGIMAT are strongly aligned with those of our ShareAspace platform, which we’ve designed to enhance collaboration and information assurance in the defence supply chain.“
By building on internationally recognised, standardised information models, including Product Life Cycle Support (PLCS) and Integrated Product Support ASD S-Series specifications, Eurostep is well placed to support NDMA’s strategy of adopting international standards to enhance efficiency, quality and interoperability.
