What Numerical Precision does

Numerical Precision is a precision CNC machining manufacturer headquartered in Wheeling, Illinois, founded in 1970 by Egon Jaeggin and operating today as a privately held subsidiary of George Industries LLC. The company produces tight-tolerance machined components and assemblies for prime aerospace contractors, government space programs (including the International Space Station, Hubble Space Telescope, and James Webb Space Telescope), defense programs (Joint Strike Fighter, missile navigation systems), and commercial aircraft manufacturers. Its core technical capability is multi-axis CNC machining of complex geometries in difficult materials, supported by an in-house Dimensional Measurement Services function treated as a standalone profit center.

The company's competitive positioning rests on quality system credentials (AS9100:2016, ISO 9001:2015), ITAR registration for handling defense articles, ASQ-certified technicians and tool-and-die makers, and a 34-year no-injury safety record. Operational differentiators include Quick Response Teams structured to deliver expedited turnaround on urgent defense orders, and a Supplier of the Year recognition plus Presidential recognition attesting to program performance.

Revenue is generated through contract manufacturing purchase orders placed by prime contractors and government program offices on a prototype-to-production basis. The business model is high-mix, low-volume precision machining with metrology as a complementary service line; pricing is project/PO-driven rather than subscription or platform-based. The customer base is concentrated among a small set of validated aerospace and defense buyers, and the firm's privately held status under a parent holding company limits public financial visibility.
