Revenue model

1. Custom Metal Fabrication Projects: Project-based fabrication services for commercial, government, and industrial clients. MFAB designs, engineers, fabricates, coats, and installs custom metal components including handrails, stair railings, dumpster gates, RTU curbs, architectural facades, and structural metalwork. Revenue is earned through one-time project contracts with general contractors, property owners, and government entities. Typical project lifecycle from RFQ through installation.
2. Standardized Product Lines: MFAB has developed standardized 'MFAB Standard' designs for dumpster gates (aluminum extrusion and B-deck) enabling quicker turnaround and more affordable pricing for recurring product types, sold as either complete enclosures or individual doors. These standardized designs are offered alongside fully custom fabrication.
3. Industrial Coatings (standalone service): Painting, powder coating, hot dip galvanizing, and Kynar coating services offered both as part of turnkey fabrication projects and as standalone finishing services through an extensive vendor network.
4. 3D Scanning Services: 3D scanning services offered as a standalone offering across the state of Florida, providing RAW scan data, spatial models, or full design services to external customers who may not need full fabrication.
5. Mobile Welding / On-Site Installation: On-site repair and new construction welding services delivered by in-house field crews. Revenue earned through site-based service engagements, typically as part of broader project contracts.

Partnerships

Five partnerships are on record, tiered minor and core.

• McCree General Contractors & ArchitectsminorImplementation/ SI/ Consulting PartnerGeneral contractor on RCID exterior handrail project. MFAB designed, built, and installed handrails around an exterior walkway and ADA ramp for McCree's project in April 2024. Project-based relationship rather than a formal strategic partnership.
• Gibbs and RegistercoreStrategic or Co-development PartnerEngineering firm (PE partner) on the UCF Pedestrian Channelization Barriers project. MFAB manufactured, painted, and installed 13,400 linear feet of FDOT-compliant barriers. Close coordination with Gibbs and Register's engineering specifications was required for the large-scale public safety project.
• Ovation ConstructionminorImplementation/ SI/ Consulting PartnerGeneral contractor on UCF Seminole Hall Stair Tower Replacement. MFAB worked directly with UCF facilities to design, engineer, manufacture, and install two new aluminum stair towers. Ovation Construction served as GC on the project.
• Western Specialty ContractorsminorImplementation/ SI/ Consulting PartnerPrime contractor on parking garage handrail project in Clearwater, FL (July 2023). MFAB was engaged as the fabrication and installation subcontractor for 3D scanning, design, fabrication, and installation of parking garage handrails. Had to work with local municipality on code compliance.
• Power DesignminorStrategic or Co-development PartnerMFAB worked directly with Power Design's project managers and project engineers at their Clearwater, FL headquarters to design an architectural facade for their in-house training facility.

Broad incumbents

• Commercial Metals Company (CMC): Vertically integrated steel manufacturer with significant fabrication and rebar fabrication operations across the U.S. Competes with MFAB for structural steel and miscellaneous metals scopes on mid-to-large commercial and infrastructure projects.
• Coreslab Structures: National precast/prestressed concrete and architectural precast fabricator with Florida operations. Overlaps with MFAB's architectural and structural scope on parking garages, stadium, and commercial building projects where precast and fabricated steel are competitive solutions.
• Nucor Corporation: Largest U.S. steel producer and a major operator of steel joist, deck, and fabricated concrete reinforcing steel businesses. Sets the price and supply backdrop for raw steel and competes with MFAB indirectly through its downstream joist/deck and building systems divisions.
• Schuff Steel (Sun Steel Engineering): One of the largest U.S. structural steel fabricators and erectors, serving commercial, industrial, and infrastructure customers nationwide. Operates in the same core fabrication category as MFAB (structural steel, misc metals, railings) but at a fundamentally larger scale, providing the regional/national benchmark against which MFAB competes.

Direct peers

• East Coast Metal Systems: North Carolina fabricator specializing in structural steel, miscellaneous metals, and architectural metalwork for commercial construction. Overlaps directly with MFAB's handrail, guardrail, and structural steel scopes and serves a comparable GC and institutional customer base in the Southeast.
• SteelFab Inc. Charlotte, NC-based structural and miscellaneous metals fabricator offering design-assist, fabrication, and erection services for commercial, industrial, and institutional projects across the Southeast. Closely comparable in scope (structural steel, misc metals, railings) and regional reach, with a similarly mid-sized, project-based operating model.

Regional players

• Florida Structural Steel: In-state structural steel and miscellaneous metals fabricator serving Florida commercial and infrastructure projects. Most directly overlaps with MFAB's FDOT/government and GC customer segments within the same home geography.
• Atlas Steel Products: Southeast-based steel service center and miscellaneous metals fabricator. Comparable to MFAB in customer mix (regional GCs, property owners) and product scope (railings, stairs, structural steel), serving as a like-for-like local competitor in the SE fabrication market.
• Industrial Steel & Mechanical, Inc. Florida-based miscellaneous metals and structural steel fabricator serving commercial and industrial GCs. Comparable in size, regional focus, and product mix (handrails, stairs, structural members) to MFAB, and competes for the same Central Florida bid pool.
