# Swedish FMV Awards Knowit Sensor Contract

Sweden’s Defence Materiel Administration (FMV) awarded Knowit one of five contracts under its Situational Picture for Surface Surveillance procurement. Knowit will develop a solution that integrates, structures, verifies, and prioritizes data from multiple sensors for command-and-control use. Military users will test the solution as development proceeds in stages. The reported award date is October 26, 2026; the contract value, number, and delivery schedule were not disclosed.

- The award is part of a five-contract procurement, giving defense suppliers a concrete example of FMV’s approach to surface-surveillance data integration.
- The work centers on making multi-sensor data usable for command and control; contractors with relevant integration and data-validation capabilities may find this a useful indicator of operational needs in this area.
- Knowit says the Swedish Armed Forces will provide direct user feedback during testing. Procurement teams and prospective suppliers can account for staged development and military-user testing when assessing comparable solution approaches.
