FR Conversions Earns Ford Pro Upfitter Accreditation

WESTMINSTER, MD — FR Conversions, a national leader in emergency and mobility vehicle innovation, has earned the prestigious Ford Pro Upfitter (FPU) accreditation. This distinction emphasizes FR Conversions’ long-standing commitment to quality and enables the company to expand its portfolio of Type II ambulances built on the Ford Transit Chassis.

The FPU program — formerly known as the Qualified Vehicle Modifier (QVM) program — sets the gold standard for final-stage vehicle manufacturers. To earn FPU status, manufacturers must meet rigorous requirements across compliance, quality, manufacturing standards, trade affiliation and production volume. FR Conversions’ Type II ambulances are already dynamically crash-tested, EMT-designed and built for mission-critical reliability. With the FPU accreditation, FR joins a select group of upfitters trusted by Ford for their engineering rigor and customer-first mindset.

“We are proud to be a part of the Ford specialty vehicle ecosystem. Our partnership with Ford is a testament to the quality, safety and attention to detail our team delivers every day,” said Anoop Prakash, CEO of FR Conversions. “Earning FPU accreditation enhances our ability to meet the growing industry demand for reliable, immediately available units that can support the full spectrum of emergency response. We’re prepared to deliver and to share the unmatched value FR Conversions brings to our customers.”

FR Conversions’ FPU designation opens new, affordable converted Type II ambulance purchasing opportunities for:

• Private ambulance services seeking trusted Ford performance
• Fire departments looking to augment their fleets with more Type II ambulances
• Hospital-based EMS and NEMT groups that value Ford reliability and industry-best ergonomics
• Government and municipal buyers where Ford chassis are specified in procurement guidelines.

In addition to meeting Ford’s rigorous standards, FR Conversions is an ISO 9001-certified organization featuring a Quality Management System (QMS) designed to consistently manufacture and sell products that meet the needs of customers and regulatory requirements.
