OUR FOCUS

Specialists, Not Generalists

Most electronics manufacturers are built for volume. Cal-Comp USA (San Diego) is built for complexity. Our 56,000 sq. ft. San Diego plant runs three SMT lines alongside a dedicated rapid-prototype unit, so dense, regulated, and mixed-technology assemblies get the engineering attention they need.

Our San Diego engineering and NPI capabilities are supported by manufacturing locations in Reynosa, Mexico, and Thailand. Production location, quality requirements, and transfer arrangements are reviewed for each program.

We hold AS9100, ISO 9001, ISO 13485, ISO 14001 and ISO 50001 certifications, ITAR and FDA registrations, and a CDPH California Medical Device License. Our greenhouse gas emissions are verified under ISO 14064-1 by Systems Certification Body, an IAPMO company.
