Houston, Texas – May 5, 2025 – As many OEM’s and electronics manufacturers work to return production to U.S. soil, BPM Microsystems stands out—not for coming back, but for never leaving. Headquartered in Houston, Texas since 1985, BPM remains the only U.S.-based manufacturer of universal device programmers, delivering secure, high-performance solutions without the risks of offshore production.
“In a time when supply chain disruptions and tariffs are forcing companies to rethink overseas dependence, BPM has a built-in advantage,” says Jon Bondurant, Chief Operating Officer at BPM Microsystems. “We’ve always served the North American market from the U.S.—not as a shift in strategy, but as a foundational part of how we operate.”
With 40 years of continuous U.S. manufacturing and engineering, BPM provides distinct advantages to domestic OEMs and contract manufacturers:
- Faster Lead Times & Local Support – With operations and inventory based in Houston, BPM delivers faster shipping, responsive technical support, and on-site service from U.S.-based engineers.
- U.S.-Engineered Innovation – Our advanced programming technology is developed in-house. Every firmware update, socket design and software update is designed, tested and built by our team in Houston, TX.
- Built for Compliance – BPM systems are designed to meet strict North American safety, quality, and environmental standards—no localization or retrofitting needed.
- Hands-on Integration Support – Direct access to local engineering and support teams — a dedicated application engineer is assigned to each new system install, dialing in programming parameters and yield metrics until you hit your first‑pass yield targets.
- Proven Manufacturing Expertise – Backed by decades of experience in high-precision assembly and socket design, BPM systems deliver reliable, production-ready performance for demanding electronics manufacturing environments.
The current global climate has exposed the vulnerabilities of offshoring critical production. For companies seeking long-term reliability, BPM Microsystems offers the security and speed that only a U.S.-based partner can provide. “Our strength is more than geography—it’s consistency,” adds Bondurant. “While others adapt, we’re already where our customers need us most—right here at home.”
