Whether you're an OEM, contractor, engineering firm or end-user, GF Piping Systems wants to be your partner in executing the most complex construction projects in the world. By applying our Engineering and Offsite Pre-fabrication solutions we have in fact earned the position of preferred global partner to some of the biggest players in the most active industries. Members of our global executive team explain the keys to this successful approach.
James Jackson – Head of Business Unit Americas identifies the biggest challenges in construction projects everywhere, all of which lead to cost overruns, how we at GF Piping Systems help address those challenges, and that as project complexities increase the GF Specialized Solutions group excels for our clients throughout the entire construction roadmap.
Richard Trevaskis – Head of Region Northern Europe explains that GF Piping Systems began offering offsite pre-fabrication around the year 2000 in response to dramatic growth in the Microelectronics and Mechanical Building Services markets, and that today we continue expanding globally to serve extraordinary growth in Data Centers, Industrial Water Treatment, Marine, and Gas & Water Utilities.
Patrick Fedor – Head of Technology & Business Development emphasizes that it's the GF Piping Systems process of planning, designing, engineering, fabricating, packaging and delivering custom-made piping components which leads to increased project efficiencies, improved quality, and better long term performance and reliability for our clients.
Reto Zollinger – Head of Service Operations demonstrates that success in offsite pre-fabrication begins with the client consultation, followed by GF engineering. We apply stress analysis to address thermal expansion and contraction, water hammer avoidance, proper supports, and spacing, etc. and then deliver pre-fabricated assemblies that are fully documented, tested, and guaranteed.
Bernd Schuster – Head Global Specialized Solutions shows the GF footprint of twelve fabrication shops globally and describes the main purpose of the network as supporting clients with standardized procedures and guidelines to deliver the same high levels of project execution and ISO-certified quality wherever the project happens to be, anywhere in the world.
Connected fabrications shops
Nowadays, GF Piping Systems has a network of more than 12 fabrication workshops worldwide. Those locations can work in coordination when required by projects, sharing expertise and capabilities to deliver best-in-class solutions, on-time, everywhere in the world.
