The Defense Microelectronics Activity has
supported thousands of clients, including a wide range of Department of Defense
organizations, as well as the defense interests of our allies.
Our clients have included non-military organizations such as the National Atmospheric
and Oceanic Administration, U.S. Department of Energy and the U.S. Department of
Justice.
We also count among our clients many universities and commercial companies.
DMEA Demonstrates Unique Ability No other organization in the world can do what DMEA does.
The Army installation at Tobyhanna knows that firsthand.
DMEA assists B-2 program to Avoid Costs of $32M The B-2 program projected a $54M costly Redesign for their
Defensive Management System (DMS) due to Supportability problems for their DMS as a last result they asked
DMEA to look at their problems and provide options.
Keeping The B-2 Flying The one-of-a-kind B-2 bomber, an aircraft designed to
fly itself, is already a victim of complex microelectronics issues. Tinker Air Force
Base knows that without DMEA, it wouldn’t be flying.
The Expertise to Develop New Technologies. We’ve Got
That Too.
DMEA worked with the Navy to develop new technologies to give fighter
pilots the information they needed in real time.
Satellite Weather System - Keeping Up
With The Technology
To upgrade its satellite data handling system quickly, the
Air Force went through DMEA’s Advanced Technology Support
Program. It took only four weeks, instead of the usual 18 months to place
on contract.
Access To Proprietary Industry Data
Means Permanently Supportable Technology
DMEA’s access to proprietary semiconductor industry data and its state-of-the-art
expertise are key to the support of the Army’s Multiple-Launch Rocket System.
Undisputed Experts: Almost Too Good To Be True
DMEA not only replaces antiquated electronics but it does so at reduced cost,
and the parts we make are often more reliable and capable than the original ones.
NATO’s Rockets/Missiles Program uses DMEA circuit cards.
DMEA extends the Life of Submarine Enhanced Emergency Alert System (SEEAS) Buoy to year 2025
The Navy required the Submarine Enhanced Emergency Alert System (SEEAS) to be supportable until 2025 when the system would be replaced. More Information>>
Navy & Raytheon request DMEA’s support to eliminate obsolescence
DMEA using their systematic Total Life Cycle management approach developed new and creative options to solve the Navy and Raytheon’s obsolescence problem on their Evolved Sea Sparrow Missile (ESSM). More Information>>
“...The Aegis Program
has employed the services and support of your specialized and unique organization
to assist in the development of an unmanned computer cabinet for the AEGIS Combat
System. [You] have provided rapid access to industry for the insertion of commercial
off-the-shelf advanced technology into mission critical equipment.
We wish to convey our appreciation for the professional manner in which you and
your technical staff have performed... fully responsive to our requests for action.
Most importantly, the program is on schedule and within budget.”
