He tells you that your company is planning a If that isn't enough, you also need those massive rollout of a brand-new product in parts to be built to your specifications and record time. It's up to you to find a vendor to still fit in your budget. What do you do? build the needed parts ? and fast.

Sound familiar?

Relax. Fortner Aerospace Manufacturing is here to make you look good.

Founded as a small job shop in 1948, Fortner Aerospace has been named one of the fastest growing machine shops in the country. Why? Because we do things a little bit differently than other shops.

For one thing, Fortner Aerospace has one of the shortest lead times in the country ? four to six weeks. Compare that to the industry standard of 10 to 12 weeks. On top of that, our delivery rating is 99-100% ? and that's with shipping 1,200 to 1,500 jobs a month. After all, what's a short lead time if you don't get your parts when you expect them? We pride ourselves on always putting our customers' needs first.

You can also depend on the quality of our parts. With such prestigious certifications as ISO-9001:2000 registered and AS9100A:2001 registered, you can rest assured that your parts will maintain consistent high standards, regardless of whether you need 20 or 20,000.

We're also renowned for our customer service. Have a question? Need a proposal? Want the status of your order? No problem ? we'll track down the information and get back to you...fast.

Last, but not least, our prices. You'll find our prices to be extremely competitive. That's because we have streamlined our processes to keep our costs down ? and we pass those savings on to you.

We handpick these businesses because they constantly strive toward the same high standards that we do. By working together, we can continue to provide our customers with superior products and on-time deliveries.
