Fincantieri Marinette Marine

ProPricer Helped FMM Standardize Their Processes

Fincantieri Marinette Marine (FMM) was founded in 1942 along the Menominee River Marinette, Wisconsin to meet America's growing demand for naval construction. From humble beginnings with a contract to build five wooden barges, FMM has grown into a world-class shipbuilder, having designed, and built more than 1,500 vessels. Today, the company builds ships for both the US Coast Guard and US Navy, and their current project calls for FMM to complete 13 Littoral combat ships for the Navy.

“Everybody would take their own stab at the numbers using their own format, form, or version. It got to the point where you never knew what you were looking at and rarely understood what each estimator was doing.”

FMM’S Director of Financial Reporting, Accounting and Compliance

Modernize Your Proposal Pricing System

Like most ProPricer customers, FMM previously employed a pricing system consisting of spreadsheets and in-house pricing tools - and large bids regularly took several weeks to complete. Since adopting ProPricer, FMM has reduced the entire cycle time for bids, change orders, and reporting by 75%.
