Apollo Video Technology (Apollo Video) has been recognized with the Gold award from New Flyer Industries Canada ULC (New Flyer) for delivery performance in the 2011 calendar year. Apollo Video was honored for a performance level of 99 percent and recognized for delivering value-based quality products on time to New Flyer production facilities. New Flyer is the leading manufacturer of heavy-duty transit vehicles in the U.S. and Canada. The company’s three facilities — in Winnipeg, Manitoba, St. Cloud, Minn. and Crookston, Minn. — are all ISO 9001, ISO 14001 and OHSAS 18001 certified.

Apollo Video provides New Flyer with the mobile video surveillance systems for its buses built for Apollo Video and New Flyer’s mutual transit customers. Apollo Video’s RoadRunner DVR system provides on-board cameras for monitoring video and audio surveillance inside and around transit buses, rail cars and other vehicles.

With partners like Apollo Video, New Flyer has eliminated its warehouses and now delivers all incoming parts direct to the point of use on the production line. Apollo Video received the Silver award for its delivery performance rate in the 2009 calendar year.

The Supplier Delivery Performance Awards are presented to suppliers with significant shipment volumes and an overall on-time performance level of 95 percent or higher.

“This recognition is greatly due to the outstanding performance of the Apollo Video technical support, project management, sales and services teams and the capacity of our manufacturing capabilities; production from our 45,000 square-foot facility allows us to accommodate stringent delivery schedules," said Rodell Notbohm, general manager of Apollo Video Technology. “Our improved rating of ‘gold level status’ shows Apollo Video’s commitment to providing New Flyer with quality that keeps our partnership running smoothly. This award is an esteemed honor for our organization.”
