MISSION

To build, repair and sustain maritime vessels that proudly supply, service and defend our nation and the world.

American Shipyards

Fincantieri Marine Group is comprised of three Great Lakes shipyards:

FINCANTIERI
MARINETTE MARINE

Fincantieri Marinette Marine is the center of excellence for small surface combatants. Here we are building the U.S. Navy’s future guided-missile frigate, as well as the Freedom-class Littoral Combat Ships.

FINCANTIERI
BAY SHIPBUILDING

Fincantieri Bay Shipbuilding, is a specialist in the construction, repair, and conversion of Coast Guard and commercial vessels including ATBs and OSVs. FBS is building the two largest LNG bunker barges ever built in the United States.

FINCANTIERI
ACE MARINE

Fincantieri ACE Marine, is an aluminum construction facility. Here we build the Coast Guard’s medium-sized Response Boats. We also specialize in the design and construction of high-speed coastal intercept and patrol vessels.

Fincantieri is continually looking for ways to build on our existing successes. We recently completed a $300 million capital expansion program for our U.S. shipyards. The expansion includes additional computer-aided ship manufacturing equipment, new climate-controlled facilities, and a U.S. Navy-Certified floating dry-dock.

Fincantieri’s acquisition of VARD Marine increases our portfolio of proven ship designs. VARD Marine will also increase our ability to specialize in the offshore supply and support markets.

WHAT WE VALUE

We are proud of the talent and daily commitment of the people who work here at Fincantieri Marine Group. We appreciate each member of our employee family for his and her individual craftsmanship as well as their teamwork. The inspired work and thoughts of all of our employees help chart our course for the future.

This is why we are proud to have one unified Mission, Vision and Values. To develop it, we listened to our people and our customers. How we interact with each other and serve our customers defines who we are and what we stand for.

When we live by our five values –

Safety, People, Accountability, Respect and Continuous Improvement – we become the SPARC that ignites. This influences our culture, a culture we hope is constantly shaped and reshaped by the innovative and creative spirit of our employees.

Our American team spans multiple states. From our three Wisconsin shipyards in Marinette, Sturgeon Bay and Green Bay, we collaborate. We also established a 33-acre repair yard near downtown Jacksonville, Florida to work on commercial and military vessels on the East Coast. Together, we are one of the largest shipbuilders in the U.S. And, as part of Fincantieri, we are part of the largest shipbuilding family in the Western World.

We are successful because we work together.
We are successful because we are one.
As one, we sail in the same direction and steer ourselves towards the same guiding principles.

Our after-sales operations team works jointly with colleagues in Virginia and Florida, and overseas in Japan and Bahrain. Together we sail in the same direction and steer ourselves forwards using the same guiding principles.
