GOOD CATCH OF THE WEEK
An A/Z team member observed sparks from a subtrade's hot work landing on and around cardboard boxes. Although a fire watch was present, they did not identify the hazard. The A/Z TM addressed the issue, alerted the fire watch and helped remove the boxes to eliminate the risk.
Hazards can be missed - stay alert, speak up, and take action to keep the site safe.
Did You Know?
The North Stonington Training Conference Room has officially been renamed the "Education Center" or simply, "The ED." This new name pays tribute to Edward Lorenz, the founder of A/Z Electric, who started it all back in 1968. Now, every time we gather together, we're reminded of our roots and the legacy that has shaped us. It's a place to celebrate where we began and to keep A/Z's core values alive as we grow into the future.
TEAM MEMBER SPOTLIGHT
One of our core cultural pillars is a deep commitment to safety, not only in the work we do, but in how we care for one another. Chip McAdams recently demonstrated this when a team member collapsed and was hospitalized for several days. Chip visited daily, ensured their needs were met, and connected them with A/Z’s health and safety resources. We’re proud to recognize Chip for demonstrating outstanding support and reminding us that safety also means looking out for one another every day, on and off-site.
PROJECT FEATURE
We’re excited to have joined city officials, JetBlue, Maine DOT, and U.S. Senator Susan Collins (pictured above) in breaking ground on Presque Isle’s new $38 million airport terminal. This long-anticipated project will replace a 70-year-old facility that no longer meets FAA standards, and we’re proud to help bring it to life!
While we did not take home the award, it’s an honor just to be recognized among such outstanding companies making impactful contributions through innovation, engineering, and dedication to improving patient lives around the world.
🎉We’re proud to share that the Nitto Avecia M5 Project America Facility, managed by A/Z, was selected as a finalist for the 2025 Facility of the Year Awards (FOYA).
