HI Abhijit - This is Kathy Long and I worked for DUI for years. It was a family business up until two years ago or so. At that time it has imploded and is no longer the company it was. You can see my post on DUI's forum here on ScubaBoard.
A number of years ago OMS was purchased by 3 companies. You can visit Way Back Time Machine and see the posting at
OMSDive | Home of Ocean Management Systems – OMS . To my knowledge the majority owners are DUI and BtS. I'll give you an example....
OMS introduced a new regulator - The OMS Airstream Evoque. To my knowledge DUI and BtS distributed the exact same regulator. Of those that DUI shipped (And DUI can provide the number if they wish) they had issues. I believe the original notification was to return them for a fix. I am not sure how many they fixed or what actually occurred however these were all eventually recalled and I believe the recall says risk of drowning. BtS did not recall these regulators. I asked about this on FB pages and my posts were removed. Did BtS have a fix for the regulators? If yes I wonder why they did not share these with DUI. How come these regulators were recalled in the US and not overseas? How many regulators were shipped by DUI? For example they state 2 instances. If you had 40 regs in the field and 2 had issues that would be a 5% failure rate. As a diver and as a consumer I would want to know this information.
They have massive amounts of inventory, bring in new makes and models before old models have sold. I don't believe they will be able to sustain that type of management.
When OMS was purchased no spare parts were available for products. Which left divers with equipment that was hard to impossible to service. If OMS goes out of business this could again be the case.
