BOSTON -- Segue Manufacturing Services, a global contract manufacturer specializing in electromechanical integration, cable and harness assembly and engineering services, has completed its expansion into new operations in Billerica, MA.

The new 45,000 sq. ft. facility, located about 17 miles north of Boston, is custom-designed to optimize rapid new product introduction (NPI) and ramp-to-volume of electronic products. Segue said the plant meets the accelerated production requirements of its customers’ medical devices, in particular life-saving ventilators.

The new site employs 100 manufacturing and engineering personnel, and features flexible manufacturing space for lean cell design and optimized product flow. The facility also has manufacturing cells for each of Segue’s core services which include large, complex electro-mechanical integration, complex cable and wire harness design, overmolding and potting, and an in-house machine shop. Segue also has an option to annex and expand into adjacent manufacturing space.

“As global supply chain and cost pressures mount, and regulatory requirements continue to evolve and tighten – particularly in the medical space – our customers count on Segue for expert execution and a model that flexes to provide solutions that work in this real world of constraints,” said Roger White, CEO, Segue Manufacturing Services. “Segue is purpose-built to provide our customers with a proactive team of manufacturing and engineering professionals plus a fully integrated service offering, so our customers get maximum flexibility, quality and supply chain continuity. Expanding and investing in our North American operations is an essential part of our strategy.
