Dawson Precision Components (DPC) was founded in 1965 by Bill Dawson and Frank Dawson, who initially supplied parts to manufacturing and engineering clients including the Ferranti Group. The quality ethos was evident from the first day of business.
Our business is still family-owned today, now run by Managing Director Simon Dawson, Finance Director Julie Hughes and Sales Director Paul Dawson.
In recent years we have expanded our facilities and services, investing significantly in the latest machining equipment, new production control software, inspection facilities and skills to boost our already enviable reputation.
Today the company employs almost 50 staff and great emphasis is placed on their skills, training and career development.
We have an excellent reputation in the precision engineering, component manufacturing and training sectors for our products, services and facilities, along with our highly-skilled workforce and apprenticeship programmes.
