FFF goes ISO! Now up to 8 Locations!

It’s official! Ferguson Fire and Fabrication has completed the ISO certification process and we can now officially say that we are now the Largest ISO 9001:2008 certified sprinkler fabricator in the country.

Eight of our locations: Guntersville AL, Phoenix AZ, Commerce City, CO, Baltimore MD, Kansas City MO, Freedom, PA, Mansfield TX, and Renton WA put in an amazing amount of work in order to become our ISO Certified locations.

ISO is the terminology used by the International Organization for Standardization to identify, quantify, and certify that organizations follow the procedures and standards that are an integral part of their operations. By becoming ISO certified, companies and organizations become transparent and organize themselves so that all of their activities and procedures are standardized and documented. Gaining ISO certification tells other businesses that Ferguson is committed to being the industry leader and setting the quality standards for fire protection fabrication. When you agree to comply with ISO certification standards, you aren’t just telling people you are the best, you open yourselves to outside inspection by ISO certification inspectors; passing their muster PROVES you are the best!

ISO encompasses every facet of the operation from training and skill validation, raw material procurement, sales, fabrication and delivery. It is a comprehensive look at every facet of what happens at a location and every discrepancy has to be documented, analyzed and corrected.

A special shout out and thank you goes to the associates who played such a critical role in the ISO process under the leadership of George DiMatteo; Jerry Moffitt and Don Porter. Jerry and Don burned the midnight oil and racked up the frequent flyer miles getting FFF ready for ISO.

At the branch level, every location has an ISO Branch Representative. They are as follows:

Terry Strawn – Guntersville, AL
Brian Strauch– Phoenix, AZ
Kathryn Castillo - Commerce City, CO
Mark Pickett– Baltimore, MD
Logan Papik – Kansas City, MO
Shawn Hilliard- Freedom, PA
Charlene Gomez– Mansfield, TX
Matt Lucky – Renton, WA

Some people have asked why we would choose to go through the time and effort it takes to become ISO certified. The fact is that by doing so FFF opens the door to business opportunities who strive to do business only with companies that are ISO certified. These organizations know that the ISO certification means a rigid adherence to the standards and procedures that lead to top quality performance.

As time goes on, FFF management will evaluate the opportunities that present themselves and select additional branches to undergo the ISO process.  ISO is a never ending process that underscores FFF’s commitment to setting the industry standards when it comes to sprinkler fabrication.
