A Leading Fire Protection Solution Provider
Mitch Bortner, Co-Founder and Beckie Bortner, Co-Founder & PresidentNAFPCO’s extensive experience in cold storage and food processing enables it to provide innovative and costeffective solutions to clients. It doesn’t undertake a one-sizefits-all approach for all clients, offering solutions according to their goals, timelines, and design specifications. From the implementation of fire suppression systems at the inception of a design/build project to offering service and repair solutions, the company can address diverse client needs.
“We are not a regional player; we have the capability to serve clients all over North America. NAFPCO is well-resourced to ensure everything is custom-built and make any tweaks in the project during installation,” says Beckie Bortner, co-founder, and president, NAFPCO. “Our strong partnership with clients and the ability to order materials quickly allow us to deliver high-quality work on time.”
NAFPCO believes that it is impossible to lead a project toward success without proper homework. The company conducts due diligence before the bidding process by collecting and analyzing critical information.
This plays a vital role in reducing the risk of unexpected cost overruns or changes to the project scope. NAFPCO also utilizes BIM software to optimize the design work through detailed digital representations and reveal the 3D model of the project to clients. Most importantly, it ensures that the NAFPCO’s codes and standards are strictly followed in every project.
NAFPCO’s focus on details and customer satisfaction has enabled it to successfully complete numerous projects on time and within budget. In one instance, the company engaged in a complicated addition and renovation food process project. It was able to address all the client requirements within a stipulated timeframe.
“Whether we are contracted by a design/build contractor or directly by a building owner, we always focus on understanding the root cause of a challenge upfront. This enables us to put together a costeffective custom solution,” Bortner.
A comprehensive vendor vetting process is another key contributor to NAFPCO’s success. The company treats its vendors like partners, which is crucial to building trust and longterm relationships.
