Local commercial and military ship maintenance experts, Fincantieri Marine Repair, recently received certification for its quality management systems (QMS), commonly referred to as ISO 9001.

“Professional maritime companies, like ours, must continually demonstrate our value to customers, and this world recognized certification is a reminder of the quality work our team undertakes each day and our commitment to continuous improvement,” said Ryan W. Smith, CEO of Fincantieri Marine Systems North America, Inc (FMSNA).   

Fincantieri Marine Repair (FMR) is a subsidiary of FMSNA, who has been operating in the American maritime market for more than 40 years. FMR was established in 2022, in Northeastern Florida where they maintain tugs, barges, bulk tankers, workboats, commercial, government and military vessels.

FMR provides a full complement of services at their downtown Jacksonville yard and offers remote vessel support at customer facilities and underway repair services. With years of experience in repairs to workboats and military vessels, the FMR team is well positioned to handle future projects.
