The Top 5 Reasons OEMs Are Choosing U.S.- Based PCB Assembly Partners in 2025

Sep 12

As global pressures reshape the electronics industry, more OEMs are reevaluating their supply chains and turning to U.S.-based partners for printed circuit board (PCB) assembly. In 2025, domestic manufacturing isn’t just a patriotic move — it’s a strategic one.

At Micron Corporation, we’ve seen firsthand why OEMs are making the shift. Here are the top five reasons:

1. Faster Turnaround Times

Time-to-market is everything. Working with a U.S.-based assembler drastically reduces shipping delays, customs holdups, and timezone misalignment. Micron’s agile processes help OEMs accelerate production without sacrificing quality.

2. Increased Quality and Traceability

When you manufacture locally, quality assurance improves. You gain clearer communication, easier auditing, and real-time traceability. At Micron, we adhere to rigorous inspection standards and maintain complete documentation for every board we assemble.

3. Simplified Communication and Collaboration

Working across continents can lead to missed emails, misinterpreted requirements, and production errors. With a U.S.-based partner like Micron, collaboration is seamless — from initial DFM consultation to final delivery.

4. Intellectual Property Security

Sensitive designs deserve protection. U.S.-based assembly offers stronger legal safeguards for your intellectual property, helping prevent unauthorized replication or data leaks.

5. Support for Onshoring and Sustainability

Partnering with domestic manufacturers reduces the carbon footprint associated with long-distance logistics. It also supports national resilience and local economic growth — values increasingly important to today’s OEMs and their customers.

Why Onshoring Your Electronics Manufacturing Is a Smart Move in 2025

Jul 11

In today’s volatile global landscape, Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs) are rethinking their outsourcing strategies. Supply chain disruptions, rising tariffs, and geopolitical tensions have prompted a renewed focus on onshoring — bringing manufacturing back to the United States. For electronics manufacturing in particular, the advantages of onshoring in 2025 are stronger than ever.

1. Supply Chain Stability

The pandemic-era disruptions exposed the fragility of extended global supply chains. Today, ongoing international tensions and logistical bottlenecks continue to threaten timely delivery. By manufacturing domestically, OEMs can reduce lead times, minimize transportation risks, and respond faster to customer demand.

2. Avoiding Tariffs and Trade Complications

U.S. companies continue to face complex and shifting tariff policies, especially when importing goods from Asia. Onshoring electronics manufacturing eliminates many of these tariff costs while avoiding customs delays and regulatory uncertainty. At Micron Corporation, our domestic facilities ensure predictable pricing and compliance.

3. Better Quality Control

When you manufacture close to home, you gain visibility. You can conduct regular inspections, hold tighter tolerances, and communicate directly with your production team. Our team at Micron emphasizes quality at every step — from prototype to final product — and our clients benefit from fast issue resolution and process transparency.

4. IP Protection

Intellectual property protection remains a serious concern for OEMs outsourcing sensitive technologies overseas. U.S.-based manufacturing provides stronger legal safeguards and better control over proprietary designs and data.

5. Flexibility and Responsiveness

Markets change quickly. Onshoring allows OEMs to pivot faster — whether it’s scaling production up, customizing designs, or addressing new market demands. At Micron, we partner closely with our customers to deliver flexible solutions tailored to their evolving needs.
