THE ROYAL NORWEGIAN NAVY MATERIEL COMMAND IS DIRECTLY SUBORDINATE TO HQ
DEFENCE COMMAND NORWAY.
The principle aim of NAVMATCOMNOR is to provide the Norwegian Navy with the
materiel required to maintain a credible fighting capability. This is achieved
through the planning, procurement and quality assurance of future equipment,
through the proper, quality assured maintenance of existing equipment and by
establishing and sustaining the required standby and mobilisation capacity in
terms of materiel and supplies.
Any potential supplier wishing to offer goods or services to the Norwegian
Navy should send for NAVMATCOMNOR's general leaflet. During the course of 1997,
leaflets will also be produced for each of the four departments as well as for
certain important projects. The leaflets are only available in Norwegian.
Project Department
The Project Department organises all materiel projects within the Norwegian
Navy, grouping them in various project programmes. In addition, the Project
Department has a Coordination Division and a Planning Division, both of which
provide support for the project programmes.
The Project Department's work of supplying the Navy with future materiel is
carried out in liaison with the other NAVMATCOMNOR departments.

Navy's materiel. In the case of new equipment, the technical authority

conduct of the various equipment projects. The Technical Department draws up the
operating budgets for all naval materiel and, as the technical authority, it
also establishes terms and conditions for the other NAVMATCOMNOR departments.
