BWXT Bolsters American Nuclear Manufacturing Capability With Strategic Acquisition

BWX Technologies, announced today that it has entered into a definitive agreement to acquire Precision Components Group, LLC (PCG), including its subsidiaries Precision Custom Components (PCC) and DC Fabricators (DCF). PCG is a privately held U.S. manufacturer of complex, heavy-walled and heat-transfer components. The acquisition will expand BWXT’s heavy-manufacturing footprint and establish additional U.S. commercial nuclear production capacity to serve growing domestic demand.

PCG, which generated revenue of approximately $125 million in 2025, will join BWXT’s Commercial Operations segment and continue operating at its current facilities. The acquisition adds more than 500,000 square feet of U.S. heavy-manufacturing capacity, including large-envelope machining, heavy weldments, pressure vessels, heat exchangers and ASME-certified component fabrication, and a skilled workforce of over 400 employees. The transaction is expected to close during the second half of 2026, subject to required regulatory approvals and customary closing conditions.

“PCG brings exceptional technical expertise, deep manufacturing capability and a highly skilled workforce to BWXT,” said John MacQuarrie, president of BWXT Commercial Operations. “This acquisition builds on BWXT’s strong performance in the commercial nuclear industry and represents an important first step as we establish U.S.-based commercial nuclear manufacturing capacity to meet the accelerating needs of U.S. commercial nuclear customers.”

“As nuclear demand accelerates across North America, BWXT is committed to providing the capacity and speed that the commercial nuclear industry requires,” said Rex D. Geveden, BWXT president and chief executive officer. “This acquisition creates an immediate commercial manufacturing footprint for BWXT that complements our existing service offerings to U.S. customers and fully leverages our commercial engineering expertise and supplier base.”

“Joining BWXT marks an exciting new chapter for PCG, PCC and DCF. Our teams have built a strong legacy of precision manufacturing, technical excellence and unwavering commitment to our customers. Becoming part of BWXT enables us to advance that mission with greater scale, resources and opportunity for our employees,” said Gary Butler, president and chief executive officer of PCG.

In addition to expanding commercial nuclear capacity, PCG will continue supporting existing workscopes, including components and services for Electric Boat, Bechtel Plant Machinery, Inc. and other U.S. Navy programs.
