HPi Verification Services (HPiVS), a leading provider of technical and regulatory verification services, is pleased to announce the appointment of Adam Greene as the new Technical Director (Marine). Adam brings a wealth of experience from his previous role as Naval Architecture Manager at Princess Yachts, where he was involved in the design and development of some of the world’s most renowned luxury yachts. 

Adam will take over from Bas Edmonds, who, just back from officiating at the Paris Olympics sailing regatta, has served HPiVS with distinction in the role. Bas will continue to support the company as an external consultant, ensuring a smooth transition and ongoing access to his invaluable expertise, particularly with regards to commercial craft. 

Adam Greene's appointment marks a significant step forward for HPiVS as the company continues to strengthen its marine division. With 12 years of experience at Princess and another decade with both power and sail boat builders in the UK, Italy and Spain, Adam is widely respected among his peers in the industry for his deep understanding of both regulatory frameworks and engineering solutions. He is well known for his collaborative and pragmatic approach, effectively bridging the gap between design innovation and regulatory compliance to deliver projects that meet the highest standards. 

“We are thrilled to welcome Adam to HPi Verification Services,” said Alasdair Reay, CEO of HPiVS. “His expertise in naval architecture, particularly with yachts at the larger end of the ‘small craft’ spectrum, will be instrumental in driving our marine division forward. We are also grateful to Bas Edmonds for his years of service and are pleased that he will continue to contribute as a consultant.” 

Adam Greene expressed his enthusiasm about joining HPiVS: “I am absolutely delighted to be joining HPiVS, knowing how well we have worked together on many other projects over the years. I look forward to working with HPiVS and leading the talented marine team to build upon our valued exceptional service to our clients and industry colleagues in the marine sector.” 

HPiVS has a long-standing reputation for providing high-quality verification services across various industries and holds partnerships with several global organisations such as ABS, TUV and RINA. The addition of Adam Greene to the leadership team underscores the company’s commitment to maintaining its position at the forefront of the marine sector.
