Benchmark, a global provider of engineering, design, and manufacturing services, opened its new advanced electronics manufacturing facility in Phoenix, Arizona.

Benchmark's new Phoenix facility produces solutions for high-reliability RF, photonics, and high-speed electronic systems in a wide range of market sectors, including: aerospace and defense, computing, complex industrial, medical, and next-generation telecommunications. Benchmark currently serves several high-profile customers within each of these key industries today at the new site.

"We're thrilled to announce the grand opening of our latest Phoenix facility," Benchmark's President and CEO Jeff Benck said. "Arizona has proven to be an excellent location for Benchmark to grow and thrive. The support we've received from the community, government officials, and our state's great universities have all contributed to our ability to partner with some of the world's largest OEMs to bring their innovations to life."

"As Arizona begins to safely re-energize our economy, Benchmark's expansion into its new Phoenix facility is positive news," said Governor Doug Ducey. "We are grateful that companies like Benchmark, which relocated its headquarters from Texas to Arizona, continue to bring hundreds of good-paying jobs to our state."

"Our new advanced manufacturing facility offers a completely different approach to innovation and problem solving in high-performance electronics by allowing us to partner with our customers through the entire product development cycle and innovate rapidly with high-reliability products," said Jan Janick, CTO, Benchmark.
