Telemar to support Italy’s GNV safety and navigation systems

Telemar, a provider of smart maintenance and remote access technologies, has secured a contract with GNV (Grandi Navi Veloci) to deliver safety maintenance services for its expanding fleet.

Under this agreement, Telemar will oversee the management and maintenance of GMDSS and navigation safety systems on GNV’s new vessels: GNV Polaris, GNV Orion, and GNV Virgo, which are being built at the CSSC shipyard in Guangzhou, China.

The contract will streamline the servicing of essential bridge navigation equipment by consolidating it under a single provider. This will save time and labour while reducing the risk of non-compliance, as services will be scheduled rather than performed on an ad hoc basis.

Established in 1992 and part of the MSC Group, GNV is a global player in coastal navigation and passenger transport, operating 25 ships across 31 routes in seven countries, including Sardinia, Sicily, Spain, France, Albania, Tunisia, Morocco, and Malta.

Telemar, specializing in smart maintenance and bridge electronics management, offers proactive remote and on-site support. Their services aim to minimize downtime and boost vessel efficiency with a higher rate of first-time fixes.

By optimizing asset lifecycles through collected data, Telemar enhances troubleshooting processes and repairs. This efficiency allows for more remote fixes and better service during field engineer visits to customer vessels.

“Telemar is grateful to GNV for the trust they have shown in the expertise of our people and our ability to manage these critical safety systems on their behalf. These companies have a deserved reputation for quality and quality of care for people and cargo and we are focussed on upholding that reputation,” stated Mike Bauwens, CEO of Telemar.
