Did you know Field recorded $15 million in sales in March 2023?

This exciting milestone came during a transformative year for Field.

To us, a $15 million month represents more than sales. It reflects the trust of our customers, the strength of our partnerships, and the dedication of Team Members across every Field location.

From $800,000 in annual revenue in 1990 to reaching $15 million in a single month, Field’s journey has been shaped by steady growth, an incredible team, and a commitment to being more than a parts supplier.

As we celebrate 50 years, milestones like this remind us just how far we’ve come—and how much opportunity still lies ahead! 💚

There are better ways to save. A closer look at your fastener costs is a good place to start.

When you compare suppliers, the quote tells you what the parts cost. Your team’s time, assembly work, and delivery experience help tell the rest of the story.

Our team looks at how your parts are purchased, managed, and used to help identify opportunities for improvement.

Did you know we’re currently renovating and expanding our Tyler Center of Excellence?

The renovation will update approximately 16,000 square feet of our existing facility, giving our Tyler team additional space and resources to continue growing and supporting our customers.

Did you know Field has averaged 18% annual growth since 1990?

When Bill and Jim Derry purchased Field in 1990, the company had just 12 Team Members and $800,000 in annual sales. Since then, Field has grown into a global organization serving customers across industries, countries, and continents.
But growth like this doesn’t happen by accident.

It has been built through a world-class culture, an unwavering focus on our customers, continued investment in our Team Members, and a commitment to providing more than parts through data-driven VMI, engineering support, and complete supply chain solutions.

The numbers tell an incredible story: but it’s the people, partnerships, and purpose behind them that have made 18% average annual growth possible.

And after 50 years, we’re still growing—and still believing our best days are ahead of us! 💚

Are you the person who notices what needs to be done and takes care of it?

We’re looking for a VMI Representative in Machesney Park to help keep our customers’ inventory organized and their teams moving. You’ll work directly with customers, monitor and replenish parts, solve problems, and build relationships along the way.

If you enjoy hands-on work, connecting with people, and being someone others can count on, we’d love to hear from you.

Daily firefighting doesn’t always begin with a major supply-chain failure. Sometimes it begins with a screw, nut, and washer.

A high-volume OEM was using a three-piece fastening system that required two-handed installation. Operators frequently dropped or misplaced components, slowing production and creating daily interruptions. Inconsistent torque also caused occasional joint loosening and quality concerns.

During an on-site application review, Field’s engineering team examined what the assembly process was asking operators to do. The team recommended replacing the three-piece system with a structural rivet.

The result: assembly time decreased from 17 seconds to 4.5 seconds; installation became one-handed; torque variation was eliminated; approximately 2,500 labor hours were saved annually; and total savings reached $133,274.

The opportunity wasn’t simply to find a lower-priced part. It was to make the entire process work better.

Did you know that Field has documented more than $37,088,410 in customer savings since 2012?!?

That number represents much more than lower piece prices.

It includes opportunities uncovered through value-added engineering, product redesigns, part standardization, inventory improvements, process efficiencies, and a team that is always looking for a better solution.

Our goal isn’t simply to supply parts. It’s to understand the entire application and help our customers reduce their total cost of fastening.

Because when we say, “More than parts. A partner,” we mean it.

A stockout may feel sudden to the person who finds the empty bin. The conditions behind it usually developed much earlier.

Inventory records stopped matching reality. Consumption changed. Lead times increased. Production plans shifted. Expedites became more frequent—but were treated as isolated events instead of warning signs.

By the time production is affected, the team is no longer managing inventory. It is managing a disruption.

Preventing every stockout may not be realistic. Improving how early your team sees risk is.

That requires more than counting parts. It requires connecting inventory data with actual consumption, supplier conditions, and changing production requirements.

If expedites are becoming a normal part of the week, it may be time to look beyond the individual shortage and examine the system behind it.

Did you know that Field was previously ranked the #8 Best Small Workplace in the country by Fortune Magazine.

While the recognition was certainly exciting, what made it especially meaningful was what it represented: our people and the culture they help create every day.

Field’s culture has never been something owned by one person or one department. Every Team Member plays a role in protecting it, strengthening it, and making Field a place where people can grow, contribute, and genuinely enjoy coming to work.

Awards are pretty great—but the people behind them are even better. 💚
