Defense infrastructure and stations upgrades, NDEA, Norway

The Norwegian Defence Estates Agency (NDEA) is upgrading the Norwegian Armed Forces’ infrastructure and stations across Norway.

AFRY has as the sole supplier been awarded the framework agreement for construction management.

The project is part of the Norwegian Defence Materiel Agency's Mime program, with a nationwide scope spanning Norwegian Armed Forces locations. It addresses diverse needs for reconstruction and adaptation, relying on advanced technical expertise and streamlined logistics to ensure effective execution. The framework agreement is partially funded by NATO and requires full compliance with NATO’s strict security standards.

For AFRY, this is a prestigious and complex assignment. Delivery depends on close coordination, local trust, and smooth knowledge transfer between sites. AFRY has deep expertise and extensive experience in the defence sector – and knows what it takes to ensure delivery capacity across the entire country. A clear focus on quality at every stage is essential to succeed.

The framework agreement has a duration of seven years and an estimated value for AFRY of SEK 170 million. In addition, AFRY also has a framework agreement with NDEA for strategic advisory services within property, buildings, and infrastructure.

About Mime

The Norwegian Defence Materiel Agency (FMA) has brought together a number of investment projects within tactical ICT into a program they call Mime. The aim of Mime is to modernize the information and communications systems used for tactical command and control in the Norwegian Armed Forces. The name Mime is taken from Norse mythology, where Mímir was the wisest of the Æsir and guarded the well of knowledge.
