Kongsberg Maritime Launches Unified Digital Solutions Portfolio and KM Performance
Kongsberg Maritime unveiled a harmonised Digital Solutions portfolio and launched KM Performance on February 13, 2026 — consolidating legacy software systems including K-IMS, Vessel Insight, K-Fleet, and Coach into one integrated ecosystem under Digital Ocean, the company's digital office. The consolidation represents a major shift in how one of maritime's largest technology providers supports modern fleet operations, addressing the fragmented data and inconsistent workflows that have long plagued ship operators managing multiple disconnected digital tools. KM Performance capabilities: The first solution area released within the unified portfolio covers the full voyage cycle — pre-planning, during-voyage execution, and post-voyage reporting — combining high-integrity sensor data with validated manual inputs to give operators a trusted operational picture. Key features include dynamic trim optimisation, weather-informed route planning, hull performance analytics, and automated emissions reporting — all designed to reduce fuel consumption, improve operational predictability, and maintain readiness for tightening environmental regulations. The common data foundation ensures consistent user experience across onboard, onshore, and cloud-based environments. Strategic impact for fleet operators: Alexandra Koefoed, Executive VP of Digital and Emerging at Kongsberg Maritime, described the mission as being "a trusted digitalisation partner — not just delivering technology, but guiding customers through their digital journey with solutions that actually make a difference, day-to-day." For ship managers currently managing multiple disconnected performance monitoring tools, Kongsberg's unification directly addresses the integration tax — the operational overhead of reconciling data across different platforms. The company plans to expand the portfolio through 2026 with additional solution areas for other vessel segments, positioning Digital Ocean as a comprehensive digital operating system for maritime operations. Industry analysts noted that by solving the fragmented data problem, Kongsberg fast-tracks measurable efficiency gains for owners and operators facing volatile fuel costs and tighter emissions rules.
