A domestic supply chain you can audit, certify, and count on.
Capability 06
Sovereignty You Can Put on a Compliance Matrix
"Made in America" is not a sticker here — it is a documented chain: domestic facility, domestic labor, controlled data, and a strategic-material recycling loop that reduces foreign dependence part by part.
| Compliance Snapshot | |
|---|---|
| Manufacturing location | 100% Sarasota, Florida — no foreign sub-tier fabrication |
| Export control | ITAR — registered, controlled access & U.S.-person staffing on controlled programs |
| Quality system | ISO 9001:2015 |
| Cybersecurity | NIST SP 800-171 implementation in progress under DFARS 252.204-7012 · CMMC Level 2 assessment planned within DoD's Phase 2 window (2026) |
| Traceability | Serialized, substrate-to-ship, lot-linked certs |
| Country-of-origin docs | Issued on request with every lot |
| Strategic materials | Domestic Germanium reclaim & recycling program |
Why program managers care: optics built offshore can drag export controls, hidden sub-tier risk, and lead times held hostage by geopolitics into a program that was otherwise clean. A U.S.-based, auditable fabricator trims that risk language from the briefing — and shrinks the flow-down list quality has to chase.
The Germanium loop is the part competitors can't copy quickly: scrap, swarf, and decommissioned Ge optics come back to us, get reprocessed domestically, and return as credit against new material. Your Ge exposure gets hedged; the strategic material stays in the U.S. supply base. Details in AN-006.
