electronic, optical and mechanical products, today announced its Salt Lake City, Utah facility
has been awarded the AS9100C certification for printed circuit board assemblies (PCBAs), subassemblies and systems. This
certification is an internationally recognized standard focused on quality requirements necessary in the defense and aerospace
