What Strike does
Strike, Inc. is a privately held U.S. industrial services company headquartered in Spring, Texas, founded in 2003, that delivers engineering, procurement, and construction (EPC) services, ongoing maintenance, and specialized fabrication to the energy, chemical, manufacturing, and industrial sectors. The company organizes its offering around seven industry verticals — Oil and Gas Facilities, Oil and Gas Pipeline, Oil and Gas Terminals, Gas Processing and Treatment, CO2, Renewables, and Refining and Chemicals — supported by nine service capabilities: Engineering and Design, Procurement, Construction, Maintenance, Skid-Mounted Measurement and Fabrication, Cathodic Protection, Electrical and Instrumentation, Pipeline Integrity, and Field Services. Each project is delivered under a single Project Director/Manager model intended to compress schedules and surface constructability issues at the FEED/engineering phase.
Strike executes through a family-of-companies structure comprising the parent (Strike, Inc.) and three wholly owned operating brands: Crossfire (pipeline and facilities construction in the western U.S.), Pickett Systems (OEM manufacturer of fully integrated measurement and process skids, with 200+ combined years of in-house manufacturing experience based in Corpus Christi, TX), and McLean's CP Installation (cathodic protection installation, acquired in June 2024). Strike employs between 1,001 and 5,000 people across 14+ regional offices in Texas, Louisiana, New Mexico, Oklahoma, Colorado, Wyoming, Kansas, North Dakota, Ohio, West Virginia, and Tennessee, with international project delivery through Pickett (e.g., an ultrasonic metering skid delivered to Guyana, South America).
The business model is project-based and quote-based, with revenue generated through negotiated EPC contracts, multi-year maintenance and integrity programs, and OEM equipment sales via Pickett. Long-tenured enterprise engagements dominate the customer base — including 14+ year pipeline crew support in South Texas, 9+ year support in Watford City, ND, a 5+ year primary contractor role in the Permian/Delaware Basin (600+ wells on-line), and a 200-skid-per-year preferred-vendor agreement for gas metering. Pricing is not publicly disclosed; contracts are structured as multi-year programs rather than subscription or recurring SaaS-style arrangements. GTM is direct enterprise field sales organized regionally, with senior vice presidents of regional operations, a VP of industry operations, and a senior VP of business development managing key accounts and the in-house bid center. Safety is a central qualifier: Strike reports a TRIR of 0.29 in 2023 and emphasizes a 100% work-stop authority culture.
