Founded in 1870 by Amos Woodward, the company began with a regulation governor for waterwheels and has since built a business around precision fluid, combustion, electrical, propulsion and motion control systems. Its components are found on virtually every aircraft in the world, and its products serve commercial and defense aviation, power generation, oil and gas, transportation, renewable energy, data centers and refineries.

The company's technical domains span fluid control, combustion control, electrical and propulsion systems, motion control, energy conversion and governor or regulation technology. Woodward is headquartered in Fort Collins, Colorado, and operates from more than 30 locations worldwide, employing over 10,000 people. It describes its systems as engineered to perform in the world's most challenging environments.

Woodward works in sustained collaboration with major aerospace and industrial manufacturers. Current areas of focus include high-performing, low-carbon flight and the transition to renewable energy, alongside continued work in power generation and industrial equipment.
