Since the inception of AIS (1995), Andre participated in the standardization and development of AIS at various international forums, including CIRM, IALA, IEC, IMO, ITU and RTCM.

 

Andre has vast experience in the implementation of AIS and VTS systems, both through participation (various national and international projects) and business-technical associations.

 

Under the guidance of Andre van den Berg, MDS developed and manufactured AIS Class A (SOLAS), AIS Base Station and AIS Network products.

 

The respective products received international type approval, which includes EU MED (Wheelmark), German (BSH), Netherlands (Telefication) FCC (USA), CCS (China), Korean, Polish, Industry Canada, etc.

 

George Fyfe founded Sine Qua Non Technology Holdings (SQN) in the late 1990’s. He has had a long-standing relationship with Andre van den Berg and MDS, even prior to SQN.
