Ford Australia has introduced the Ford Pro Convertor (FPC) program, designed to simplify and streamline the process of getting certified vehicle conversions and customisations for commercial use.

The program focuses on industries that often need specialised modifications including utilities, construction, emergency services, mining and overlanding. It connects customers with a network of Ford-approved converters across the country.

To join the program, converters must pass a detailed assessment by Ford, covering both their capabilities and installation methods. Approval is segment-specific, meaning a converter may be certified for certain types of modifications but not others. Conversions completed under the program carry a warranty that matches Ford’s standard new-vehicle coverage.

“We have meticulously selected and certified our Ford Pro Convertors, ensuring they meet Ford Pro Convertor standards and cater to the needs of a wide range of customers,” said Michael Elias, General Manager, Fleet, Ford Australia.

The Ford Pro Convertor program works alongside Ford’s existing Genuine Accessories and dealer-fit Licensed Accessories, providing more complex and tailored modifications that standard accessories cannot cover. Ford says the aim is to help businesses keep vehicles on the road, reduce downtime, and improve overall productivity.

“Every business is different, and they all require their vehicles to be tailored to their unique needs, with the quality, professionalism, and peace of mind that allows them to get on with the job,” said Andrew Birkic, President and CEO, Ford Australia and New Zealand.

At introduction, approved converters include Bull Motor Bodies, Duratray, Hidrive, Mits Alloy, Norweld and XL Service Bodies. Ford plans to expand the program in the future, increasing the range of certified modifications available.

Further details on each converter’s certified segments and modifications are available on the Ford Pro Convertor Program webpage.
