With our long industry experience and knowledge dealing with every stage of the embedded manufacturing pipeline, we understand the needs of this task and have helped multiple clients through it. So here are the 7 reasons to choose Global American as your embedded partner.

#1: Reputation for Delivering

Back in 1989, when embedded computers were still just called industrial systems, Global American started as the United States’ first Embedded Systems Integrator. It has been more than 36 years, and we are still the market leader in this field.

Be it SBCs or rugged systems, panel PCs or digital signage, Global American has experience building, delivering, and deploying them in both commercial and industrial environments. We value integrity and reliability, equipping our customers with the tools that last them years. Our clients have been with us for decades, often hailing from sensitive industries that value our consistency and attention to detail.

#2: Proven Process

The key to our success is our comprehensive process. From the first contact to the final delivery, we support our clients in every step of the process. Global American is a complete systems integrator, which means we have the know-how and capability to create completely custom systems on demand.

Our process starts with a one-on-one interaction with a dedicated service rep, where we understand your needs and figure out exactly the kind of system required. If the system isn’t a part of our standard lineup, we build it, sourcing the components, testing the build, and giving you the perfect product for your application.

#3: From Prototype to Production

Greenlighting a system for production based on the technical specifications alone can lead to disappointment down the line, which is hard to fix once the systems are being manufactured on scale. This is why we always start custom builds with a prototype, letting our clients try things out and determine whether it actually works for them. This prototype is also subject to stress tests, confirming it can stand up to the active workload.

We maintain this diligence even as the process moves toward production, verifying builds, sourcing quality components, and making sure that the systems manufactured at scale adhere to the same strict standards. With Global American, you are guaranteed computers that are built to last.

#4: Global Partnerships 

The Global in our name is not just a tagline. In our 35 years of operations, we have forged partnerships with leading OEMs across the world, making sure that our clients get the latest systems straight from the source. Whether it is Supermicro, or Asrock, Cincoze or DFI, we are the approved partners and resellers of their cutting-edge systems.

This includes their lineups of industrial PCs, panel computers, rugged tablets, and more. As a systems integrator, we also offer customized products based on these catalogues, giving our clients the flexibility to find the perfect solution.

#5: Adherence to Standards

Equipment that is meant to be used in healthcare or military environments needs to adhere to many safety and regulatory standards and be certified appropriately. This can be tricky for companies to ensure, owing to the complex nature of the supply chains involved, but Global American is committed to complying with all regulatory requirements.

Most of our products already have certifications like EN60601, IP65, FCC, UL, MIL-STD-810G, making them ready to use in any environment. In cases where we are dealing with custom builds or new certifications, we take care of that as a part of our process, giving our clients systems that are completely adherent to all regulatory norms.

#6: Proudly American

There is a greater emphasis than ever before on reducing our dependence on imports, with various initiatives encouraging businesses to buy American. A difficult objective to meet with embedded PCs, where many firms simply resell imported boards, with no manufacturing taking place here.

But with Global American, you know you are getting certified domestic computers. As full-fledged partners of Original Equipment Manufacturers, we source the base components and assemble them within the US, fulfilling the domestic manufacturing requirements. We also maintain complete receipts for any imported input materials, helping uncomplicate the tariff procedures and avail the statutory exemptions.

#7: A Service, not Just a Product 

Embedded computers aren’t standalone products that you can buy and forget about. These are workhorses performing crucial jobs for your business, and require consistent maintenance to keep working smoothly.

This is why at Global American, we offer not a one-time sale, but a responsibility to deliver on your computing needs. This involves support and maintenance for your computers, including replacement components when needed. And as the system reaches the end of its lifecycle, we help you work out a transition plan, ensuring that your work is not interrupted due to any logistical issues.
