Stenersen Shipping is a Norwegian shipping company specialising in the transport of chemicals and petroleum products with a modern fleet of medium-sized tankers, and which needed a more proactive and accessible IT partner for efficient operations and secure continuity. With a need for strategic advice on digitalisation and security, as well as a partner who could build on their existing Azure solution, the collaboration with Nordlo was established.

Before Rederiet Stenersen became a customer of Nordlo, they needed a more proactive and accessible IT partner - someone who could take responsibility for efficient operations, ensure continuity, and provide strategic advice on digitalisation and security. Building on their existing cloud solution in Azure has been central to the collaboration.
The most important thing in our IT everyday life is that our systems, solutions and processes work seamlessly. When they do not, it is crucial that we have an IT partner who can quickly and efficiently support us and solve the problems and challenges we face.
Nordlo has been the IT partner for Rederiet Stenersen since and has supported them throughout their cloud journey, taking over responsibility for operations, security, and user support. Today, Nordlo manages all the infrastructure for the company in Azure with a comprehensive IT platform that provides Stenersen with a stable, secure, and efficient digital everyday life.
Nordlo has taken over and optimised their environment in Microsoft Azure, ensuring ongoing operations, monitoring, and maintenance with high performance and good security as prerequisites. At the same time, they have facilitated efficient collaboration and secure access to information through Microsoft 365, including SharePoint and Teams.
Stenersen uses several different systems for procurement and maintenance, and Nordlo has ensured that these integrate well by managing and monitoring the integrations that connect them, contributing to a more stable and efficient workflow.
Nordlo has also strengthened IT security through training in safe usage, improved login procedures, and more precise access control. In addition, they are always available and follow up with advice and support - both to ensure continuity and to further develop the solution in line with needs.
"The most important role Nordlo has for us is to be a partner that provides good advice and recommendations, that shows the way and helps us navigate in an increasingly challenging landscape concerning new technology and IT security," continues Knutsen.
It is alpha and omega that we have an IT partner who can support us quickly and efficiently.
Since Nordlo took responsibility for and further developed the IT operations, Rederiet Stenersen has achieved a more efficient internal control and structure strengthened by an optimised solution in Azure, increased security and safety around its data with a modern and reliable platform, as well as a flexible IT platform that grows in line with the company's needs without limitations.
With this, Stenersen has gained a robust IT platform they can rely on and the freedom to focus on what they should, with the assurance that the systems function as they should.
"We experience the collaboration with Nordlo as a partnership. Over many years as a customer, we have established a highly valued, personal, and efficient collaboration, and good relationships with resource persons at Nordlo in Bergen, who in turn have become well acquainted with our systems, characteristics, and expectations," concludes Knutsen.
