# **About OWSI, a Precision Manufacturing Company**
OWSI is a precision manufacturing company based in Houston, Texas, with experience dating back to 1936. We provide contract manufacturing for complex components used in oil and gas, aerospace, mining, and other demanding industries, combining machining knowledge, production planning, material expertise, and inspection support under one roof.

## MACHINING CAPABILITIES BUILT AROUND COMPLEX WORK
The right machining partner should understand more than the equipment involved. OWSI brings together CNC machining, EDM, production capabilities, materials knowledge, and inspection support to help manufacture parts that need accuracy and consistency from the start.
Our Houston facility supports both standard and complex machining work, with the team experience and production discipline needed to produce parts to specification. OWSI also maintains compliance with ISO 9001:2015 quality standards, reinforcing our focus on consistent production and inspection.

## MANUFACTURING EXPERIENCE DATING BACK TO 1936
OWSI’s manufacturing experience dates back to 1936, giving the company a long history of supporting customers with complex production needs. Over that time, equipment, programming technology, materials, and industry requirements have continued to evolve, but the need for carefully made parts has remained constant.
Today, OWSI combines that depth of experience with modern machining, engineering, and inspection resources. The company continues to approach each project by understanding what the part requires, planning the work carefully, and maintaining a consistent process from initial review through final inspection.

## FROM OIL AND GAS ROOTS TO BROADER PRECISION MANUFACTURING
OWSI’s history is rooted in Houston’s oil and gas industry, where components are often used in demanding applications and difficult operating conditions. This work has helped build practical knowledge around complex geometries, material considerations, tight tolerances, repeat production, and parts exposed to wear, load, or vibration.
That experience now supports customers in aerospace, mining, and other industrial markets. Although each industry presents different requirements, the underlying expectation is similar: components must be manufactured accurately, inspected carefully, and produced with an understanding of how they will be used.
By combining long-standing oil and gas experience with broader precision manufacturing capabilities, OWSI can support customers whose parts require thoughtful planning and dependable execution.
