The FAB 40 list is created with the help of those metal fabricators willing to share their revenue numbers and company information with The FABRICATOR and its readership.
The first step in the information gathering occurred in February when a mailer was sent out to slightly more than 1,200 publication subscribers who also identified their companies as being part of the fabricated metal product sector, as defined by the North American Industry Classification System. The letter requested company financial information, feedback on current operations, and outlook for 2011. Two follow-up e-mail letters–sent in early and late March—were sent to those companies that did not respond to previous attempts to contact them.
These companies that submitted responses were then ranked according to self-reported 2010 revenue. Because most, if not all, companies are privately held, independent verification of reported revenue was not possible.
