SGS (Société Générale de Surveillance), established in 1878, is renowned for its leadership in ensuring quality and compliance with standards. Its expertise spans a wide range of industries, including manufacturing, construction, transportation, and energy.
The primary goal of the SGS representatives' visit was to explore uSky Transport & Infrastructure Technology and discuss the requirements and standards needed to certify these technologies for use in various countries worldwide.
Certification plays a crucial role in scaling up innovative technologies. It confirms their compliance with international and national standards, ensuring safety, reliability, and environmental sustainability. For uSky Transport, certification means the opportunity to enter new markets, strengthen partner trust, and accelerate the implementation of commercial projects across different regions.
SGS brings the necessary expertise and tools to conduct such evaluations. Their involvement in certifying uSky Transport & Infrastructure Technology can not only expedite the process of adaptation to specific market requirements but also enhance competitiveness on a global scale.
During the visit, SGS representatives had the opportunity to explore Test Track 1 and Test Track 4, experience rides on the tropical certified uCar and the novel uBus Carat, and review the cargo and high-speed solutions. Particular attention was given to the safety, energy efficiency, and environmental sustainability aspects of uSky Transport & Infrastructure Technology.
Successful collaboration between uSky Transport and SGS could serve as a prime example of how innovative technologies can be seamlessly integrated into existing infrastructure through strict adherence to standards and regulations. For SGS, this opens new opportunities to engage with cutting-edge technologies, while for uSky Transport, it provides the support of a globally recognized partner in scaling its solutions.
The potential partnership between uSky Transport and SGS represents a significant step forward not only for both companies but also for the entire transportation industry. It underscores a shared commitment to ensuring high quality and safety standards for innovative technologies that could become the cornerstone of sustainable urban development in the future.
