SkyWater Florida Achieves DMEA Category 1A Trusted Supplier Accreditation

Business Wire
SkyWater Technology (NASDAQ: SKYT), the trusted technology
realization partner, today announced that its advanced packaging
operation in Florida has been accredited as a Category 1A Trusted
Supplier by the Defense Microelectronics Activity (DMEA) of the
U.S. Department of Defense (DOD). This prestigious designation
furthers SkyWater’s dedication to delivering trusted and secure
microelectronics manufacturing for critical defense applications.
The facility SkyWater owns and operates in Minnesota originally
achieved DMEA Category 1A Trusted status in 2010 and was
re-accredited when SkyWater was founded in 2017.
DMEA Category 1A Trusted Supplier accreditation represents the
highest level of trust and reliability in semiconductor
manufacturing and demonstrates SkyWater’s unwavering commitment to
meeting stringent security standards for the nation’s
defense-related applications. Trust is established through rigorous
evaluations of the integrity of both the personnel and procedures
they employ in the design, fabrication and distribution of critical
national security components. With this accreditation, 100% of
SkyWater’s operations are Trusted, which underscores the company’s
prominent position in the aerospace and defense industry and is
part of its strategy to continue building a domestic semiconductor
ecosystem.
“SkyWater’s standing as a Trusted Supplier is not only essential
for those customers who require it; our security posture benefits
other government and commercial customers as well,” said SkyWater
CEO, Thomas Sonderman. “With very little advanced packaging taking
place in the U.S., this poses national security and economic risks.
By reshoring this critical step, we can assure the integrity,
quality and confidentiality of the design and manufacturing of
microelectronics systems that are vital to our national
defense.”
In January, SkyWater Florida announced the kick-off of a
significant new DOD effort to expand domestic fan-out wafer level
packaging capabilities. This initiative, facilitated by a five-year
DOD contract valued up to $190 million, was awarded to Osceola
County and SkyWater to fund the facilitization, tooling and
build-out of the Florida facility. Achieving Trust accreditation
currently goes beyond the program’s development requirements and
further demonstrates SkyWater’s commitment to best serving the
needs of the DOD.
Dr. Nicholas Martin, DMEA Director, said: “The accreditation of
SkyWater’s Florida site extends our partnership, reinforcing and
bolstering our domestic microelectronics manufacturing capacity.
The Trusted Supplier accreditation remains a cornerstone in
semiconductor assurance, guaranteeing the DOD assured access to a
variety of securely manufactured chips essential in fortifying our
defense systems. This new facility accreditation expands the
Trusted domestic supplier base for DOD programs requiring access to
secure packaging.”
