FULL SYSTEM CAPABILITY
Kongsberg Automotive holds a wide range of R&D disciplines and production methods, and has a unique position to be able to offer a global footprint and full system capability. Kongsberg Automotive benefits from global resources and economies of scale in the regional centers of excellence, while maintaining the full range of R&D capabilities in North America, Europe and Asia. This positions Kongsberg Automotive well to be a preferred partner, as OEMs and Tier 1 suppliers increasingly outsource their R&D and engineering. Close cooperation between engineering and production ensures optimal products for best function, cost and quality.
The six global tech centers are located in the USA (Novi), Canada (Shawinigan), China (Wuxi), Sweden (Mullsjö) and Norway (Kongsberg and Raufoss). This strategy enables Kongsberg Automotive to maintain resources near key customers that drive the technology shifts in the automotive industry.
