ity fire protection with great service, until grief struck with his untimely passing in 1969. In 1970, at just 24 years old, Bill Oliver would succeed his father as the 2nd President of Oliver Sprinkler Company. Over the next 30 years, driven by his work ethic, industry knowledge and that core prin- ciple of customer service, the young president, his broth- ers and a dependable team would take Oliver Sprinkler Company to new heights as the premiere family-owned fire protection company in the region. When Bill finally stepped
down at the end of 1999, his brother, Dick Oliver took over as president. Under his heart- felt leadership, and keen industry knowledge, a new department would emerge. The fire alarm department led by Russ Walters, would grow exponentially in the years to come, allowing Oliver to become a full fire protection service provider. In 2005, Da - vid Oliver, representing the third generation, became the 4th and current president of our company as his brother Steve Oliver would oversee several operational depart- ments. Dave’s industry fore- sight, leadership and vision helped expand the company even further than before with the opening of our New Jer- sey office, which allowed us to provide greater attention and better customer care to our Northeastern, NJ custom- ers. And with the installation of our Security division, we have been able to open up additional services to our customers including Access Controls, CCTV, IP video, Bi Directional Amplification, and Burglar Systems. The name of Oliver would then change to encompass all of its facets of life safety and security, be- coming aptly named Oliver Fire Protection&Security . Although the name has changed, Dave continues to reiterate our core principles every chance he gets, so to never lose sight of what makes Oliver stand out amongst the rest. That we are passion- ate about what we do. We stand behind our exceptional services. And we have an ex- traordinary commitment to our customers. Since 1957, we have known that “it is because of the customer, that we ex- ist”. We carry this philosophy forward as we continue to work with property managers, owners and general contrac- tor to install systems in new buildings, retro fit an existing building, and resolve any fire protection or security chal- lenges that may arise. We pro- vide ITM (Inspections Testing & Maintenance), Emergency Repairs, Monitoring and En- gineering Design services that expand beyond the Mid- Atlantic Region. And as we add remarkable people to our Oliver Team, we will continue to provide quality service and premium customer care for many years to come. MAREJ
