Nordic Unmanned (NUMND) receives uplift on existing EMSA contract

Nordic Unmanned receives uplift on contract with European Maritime Safety Agency
(EMSA).
The value of the uplift is 1.1 Million EUR and is an uplift of an existing
contract, labelled EMSA/OP/12/2018, which covers the delivery of lightweight
RPAS (Remotely Piloted Aircraft System) services to EMSA. These services cover
operations from vessels and land, providing aerial view of operation areas
around fields of oil pollution, fishery control, and maritime surveillance.
Nordic Unmanned is seeing a larger than expected demand for services utilizing
the lightweight RPAS Lockheed Martin Indago 2 and 3 in the contract, and EMSA
has amended the framework contract with an increase of the contractual value by
38.46%, adding 1.1 million EUR. The uplift is expected to be used during 2021,
making the new total budget for the contract around 4 million EUR. The rest of
the framework contract remains unchanged. The client is not committed to consume
the total budget, and the actual usage of the contract is performed through the
signature of specific contracts. So far there has been 42 specific contracts on
this framework contract and based on current and past activity levels, there are
indications that the uplift will be used during 2021.
Knut Roar Wiig, CEO of Nordic Unmanned stated: "The uplift of this contract with
EMSA once again showcases the importance of these lightweight RPAS services in
maritime operations. The growth in our industry is driven by the rapid
distribution and use of the data the RPAS is providing. This is solving the need
for information that our customers are experiencing, and thus increasing the
demand for our services, at a much faster rate than anticipated only a few years
ago. Our rapid deployment and integration into existing vessel and port
operations makes critical live data available to key tactical and strategic
decision makers in the matter of seconds. We are proud to supply these services
to EMSA and their users."
