🌟 Employee Spotlight: Tom Smith🌟

Meet Tom, our Laser Production Supervisor! Tom has been part of the AWI team for a year, and during that time, has become a valuable part our our shop operations.

Originally from Healdsburg, CA, Tom brings a passion for metal work, both on and off the clock. Outside of work, he enjoys rebuilding cars, restoring antiques, and creating art out of metal. He also loves spending time with his wife and kids, riding his motorcycle long distance, and driving around in his hotrod truck.

When asked what he loves most about his job, Tom said it’s the culture. Since starting at AWI, he said it has felt like home every day, thanks to the positive environment and the people who genuinely love what they do.

We’re grateful to have Tom on the AWI team!

A little friendly competition is always a fun way to bring some extra excitement to the shop, connect as a team, and enjoy a few laughs along the way.

Congratulations to our winner, Gavin Hertzog – your airplane went the distance!

Safety is a top priority at AWI.

We support that commitment with a dedicated Safety Committee that meets regularly to review practices and reinforce expectations across our facility. In addition, we partner with an outside safety representative who conducts monthly walkthroughs and provides expert guidance.

Accountability, consistency, and continuous improvement are key to maintaining a strong safety culture — and we take that responsibility seriously.

Taking care of our team, one step at a time!

Last week, we brought Chet’s Shoes onsite so our shop employees could try on different styles and get what they need, right here at work.

Through our boot reimbursement program, eligible employees receive up to $150 each year toward steel toe boots, helping keep our team safe and comfortable on the job.

Family is at the heart of AWI — and this week, we had the opportunity to celebrate some of the incredible moms on our team.

Through a couple of company-wide raffles, we shared a small token of appreciation for everything they do each day — at work, at home, and in our community.

Happy Mother’s Day! 💐🧁
