NESEA American Tour de Sol In 2001, two of Azure’s electric cars and a hybrid car powered by Azure components each earned first place in their respective categories at the 13th annual NESEA Tour de Sol Great American Green Transportation Festival, a week-long road test of the capabilities of advanced vehicles. In 2000, Azure’s Force electric sedan powered by Nicad batteries was awarded “Greenest Car for Sale” in the 12th annual NESEA American Tour de Sol electric vehicle championship. An electric school bus developed by Azure Dynamics Incorporated, Blue Bird, the New York Power Authority (NYPA), and the New York City Department of Transportation, completed over 70 miles on one charge of its lead acid battery pack, taking top honors in the heavy-duty vehicle category. |
ISO 9001:2000 CertificationAzure Dynamics' Canadian facility in Burnaby, British Columbia became certified to the ISO 9001:2000 Quality Management System standard by BSI Management Systems on November 1, 2007. Our Woburn, Massachusetts facility has been certified to ISO 9001:2000 by TUV America since October of 2003. The certification of compliance to ISO 9001:2000 recognizes that the policies, practices and procedures of the Company ensure consistent quality in the products and services provided to the customer. Certification to ISO 9001:2000 requires a stringent evaluation process including the development of a quality management system, a formalized review of the related documentation, a pre-audit, an initial assessment and clearance of all non-conformances. These steps are intended to identify corrective actions that eliminate non-conformance to the quality management standard. |
