This year, just 23% of the 117 companies evaluated earned National Preferred Partner status.

Moen was one of 13 manufacturer partners recognized in this year's program, joining companies including Cosentino, DuPont, Eaton, GAF, James Hardie, Owens Corning/Masonite, Simpson Strong-Tie, Square D, Trane, Weyerhaeuser, Johns Manville and Zurn.

The National Preferred Partner designation is based on David Weekley Homes' supplier evaluation platform, which includes quarterly feedback from team members working directly with manufacturing and field partners across the company's markets. Suppliers are evaluated using a two-question, five-point rating system focused on product quality and customer service. Participants receive detailed feedback throughout the year, allowing them to benchmark their performance against others in their industry and identify opportunities for continuous improvement.

According to David Weekley Homes, the evaluation process is designed to strengthen collaboration between the builder and its suppliers while recognizing organizations that consistently exceed expectations.

For Moen, the latest recognition reflects more than a decade of partnership with the national home builder. In an industry where homeowner expectations, product innovation and supply chain dynamics continue to evolve, maintaining National Preferred Partner status for 14 consecutive years demonstrates sustained performance and long-term collaboration.

David Weekley Homes also recognized 14 field partners as 2026 National Preferred Partners, including Ferguson Enterprises, Builders FirstSource, ABC Supply/L&W Supply, SRS Distribution and Foundation Building Materials, which received the recognition for the first time.

The National Preferred Partner program is now in its 22nd year and remains one of David Weekley Homes' primary tools for measuring supplier performance and fostering strong relationships throughout its supply chain.
