What TJMS does

TJMS (legal name: TJ Machining Solutions Ltd., Companies House registration 14220822) is a UK private precision engineering and contract manufacturing firm founded in 2022 by co-founders Tom and Josh and headquartered at 1 Spitfire Close, Coventry. Operating from a single facility with a headcount of 1-10, the company delivers CNC turning, CNC milling, 3D CAD design, reverse engineering, quality control, and end-to-end supply chain management to industrial clients in the automotive, aerospace, defence, agriculture, and motorsport sectors, with a stated specialism in automotive powertrain and transmission components.

The technical platform is centred on Doosan CNC machinery, including the Puma GT2100M lathe with live tooling for multi-function machining and the DNM 6700 mill fitted with a Nikken 4th axis and Renishaw probing system. Quality assurance is anchored by ISO 9001 certification and a UKAS-certified Mitutoyo Coordinate Measuring Machine, and engineering output is supported by Finite Element Analysis (FEA) and CAM-based tool path simulation. The firm extends its service scope through a partner network of specialist gear cutting, precision grinding, and heat treatment / coating providers, enabling integrated component delivery despite the small in-house footprint.

TJMS runs a sales-led, quote-based B2B model with no publicly disclosed pricing tiers. Customers engage through the website contact form, email ([email protected]), or dedicated sales and technical phone lines, with projects priced on component complexity, materials, and production volumes. The company is privately held by its two founders, has no external funding or institutional investors, has not disclosed revenue, and is not party to any disclosed M&A, partnership with named third-party brands beyond its specialist supplier network, or international expansion beyond a UK-only operating geography. Named enterprise customers include GKN Driveline and Shield Manufacturing.

Emerging players

• Hubs (Protolabs Network): Global digital manufacturing platform offering instant online quoting for CNC machining, injection molding, and 3D printing. Represents an emerging, digitally-enabled threat that could redirect SME and prototyping volume away from traditional UK job shops like TJMS.
• Fictiv: Digital manufacturing marketplace connecting buyers to vetted CNC machining and fabrication partners globally. Emerging competitor at the prototyping and low-volume end of TJMS's customer use cases, with stronger software-driven customer acquisition.

Broad incumbents

• Kennametal: Global broad-line supplier of metalworking tooling, inserts, and wear solutions serving machining operations across industries. While not a direct machining services competitor, it shapes the tooling economics and technology roadmap relevant to TJMS's operations.
• Sandvik Coromant: Leading global supplier of metal cutting tools and machining solutions. Adjacent incumbent whose tooling technology and digital machining platforms influence productivity benchmarks that shops like TJMS must match to remain competitive.

Direct peers

• Dawson Shanahan: Wales-based precision engineering company specializing in high-tolerance machined components for automotive, motorsport, and industrial sectors. Comparable to TJMS in automotive/motorsport focus and tight-tolerance turning/milling capability.
• Gauge Precision Engineering: UK precision machining shop providing CNC turning and milling services to similar industrial customer segments. Comparable small-batch, high-tolerance precision engineering model targeting UK manufacturers.
• Produmax: UK-based contract CNC machining and precision engineering shop serving automotive, aerospace, and industrial customers. Direct competitor offering similar multi-axis CNC turning, milling, and quality-controlled production work in the same addressable market as TJMS.
• Kemlows Manufacturing Solutions: UK contract precision machining shop offering CNC turning, milling, and assembly for industrial customers. Comparable in scale and service scope to TJMS's Coventry operation.

Others

• Renishaw: UK-based metrology and probing technology supplier whose probing systems are used on TJMS's Doosan DNM 6700 mill. Not a competitor but an enabling technology partner whose product roadmap affects TJMS's inspection and in-process probing capability.
• Mitutoyo: Global manufacturer of precision measurement instruments including the UKAS-certified CMM that TJMS uses for quality verification. Enabling supplier rather than competitor, but sets the quality equipment standard customers expect from precision shops.
