Lodi, Calif.-based D&M makes fire protection systems for distributors and contractors.

"D&M Fabrication has an exceptional, best-in-class reputation for high- quality fabricated fire protection systems and has been a partner of HD Supply Waterworks for nearly a decade," HD Supply Waterworks regional vice president Chuck Reed said. "This acquisition is extremely important for us because it will solidify our ability to provide value-added services to our customers through fabrication capabilities in Northern California."

D&M Fabrication will be integrated into HD Supply Waterworks, which distributes water, sewer, fire protection and storm drain products to the water, wastewater, storm and fire protection markets.
