Examples
- E18 Western Corridor
This CRED analysis demonstrates that the expansion of the E18 motorway west of Oslo is not socially rational. The stated objective is to achieve both improved traffic flow and zero growth in private car traffic, as the city lacks the capacity to absorb additional inbound vehicles. For this to succeed, private cars must be actively diverted, and the E18 must be defined as a priority corridor for public transport and commercial traffic, rather than as a general access route. This case illustrates a broader problem in Norwegian governance: irreversible investments are often decided before irreversible political choices have been made. CRED was developed to make this type of systemic failure visible – before it becomes costly, permanent, and difficult to correct. - CRED analysis: How can the National Theatre best be rehabilitated?
How should the rehabilitation of Norway’s main stage be carried out? Should anything new be built—where, and how much? An independent proposal from LPO Architects has been submitted that is BEST on all substantive parameters, yet will likely still be overridden by Statsbygg because they “own” the process. CRED is used to reveal where the real blockages actually lie—not in the substance, but in process, prestige, and institutional dynamics. A strategy is then modelled that makes traction possible without conflict, by changing the field rather than fighting against it. - A CRED analysis of Norway’s National Security Strategy 2025.
Thomas Boe Hornburg was appointed Security Adviser to Prime Minister Støre and the government in December 2025. This is the first time Norway has had such a role. Hornburg also authored the security strategy that he himself is now expected to follow. CRED examines here whether the report meets the required standard and shows that it should be both expanded and developed in greater depth. - A CRED Analysis of the Municipal Plan for Lyngen Municipality in Nord-Troms, Norway
This municipality is very small and faces numerous challenges. Here you can see, in practice, the difference in quality between CRED and ordinary ChatGPT. CRED delivers a far more extensive response with concrete proposals – while ordinary ChatGPT appears rather unhelpful by comparison. - A CRED Analysis of the Norway–Germany Relationship
Here you can see, in practice, the difference in quality between CRED and ordinary ChatGPT. CRED offers far greater depth and precision – while ordinary ChatGPT appears flat and uninteresting by comparison.
