Our Mission

“Our mission with every Pierce project revolves around the performance and protection of the firefighter. We can’t improve in one category and take away from another. Ascendant was born out of that refusal to compromise, and we think it sends a pretty strong message about the lengths Pierce will travel to serve firefighters.”

Dave Archer, VP of Engineering, Pierce Manufacturing
