A new project with real purpose

We’ve recently begun working on a new project with the Royal Navy, via Digi2al as the supplier. While it’s still early days, we’re proud to be part of a much wider team contributing to something that has the potential to make a meaningful and lasting difference.

Who we’re working with

We’re joining Navy Digital – DNA (Data & Navy Applications), the Royal Navy’s in-house software team. DNA is responsible for developing data, platforms and applications that improve how the Navy operates — increasing efficiency, effectiveness and availability across the board.

Building on past experience

This isn’t our first time working with Digi2al or the Ministry of Defence. We’ve previously supported another MOD project, and we’re excited to bring that experience into this new partnership.

A genuinely collaborative culture

One thing that stands out already is the strong team culture. DNA brings together military personnel, civil servants, contractors and suppliers — all working as one team. It’s a place where people respect each other’s skills and experience, and where everyone is focused on a shared mission.

Looking ahead

We’re just one part of a larger team, and a lot of the work we’ll be doing is understandably sensitive. So while we won’t be sharing much detail, we’re hopeful that our contribution will help make a real impact — and that this project will be rewarding for everyone involved, both professionally and personally.
