Diversified Systems, Inc. is an electronic contract manufacturer (board level through full box build) of high reliability products, with a foundation based on engineering methodology. The commitment to quality is evident in the sheer number of certifications / registrations held by dsi, including: ISO 9001:2000, AS 9100 Rev B, ISO/TS 16949, TL 9000 Registration Rev 4.0, ITAR Registered, and internal trainers certifying operators to IPC Manufacturing Guidelines (IPC-A-600 & IPC-A-610), J-STD-001, IPC-7711/21.  More information on dsi’s Quality focus can be found at www.divsys.com.

Need help procuring components for your rapid build? Our highly trained project management staff  can electronically source components for you. You can also take advantage of dsi’s in-house inventory of over 30,000 different part numbers.

After you have validated your boards and assemblies, let us provide a seamless transition from the prototype stage to full production.  Since dsi uses the same lines for Rapid jobs as we do for production jobs, the transition is smooth and simple.  And, if you are moving to high volume production assembly, dsi can make the transition to one of our off-shore partners.  Your IP will be secure, and you will have the comfort of knowing that dsi is verifying your units at our Indianapolis facility before they ship to you.
