EE Technologies

EE Technologies, also known as Electronic Evolution Technologies, Inc. and EET, is an electronic manufacturing services company headquartered in Reno, Nevada. It provides outsourced production support to original equipment manufacturers, combining printed circuit board assembly with broader electronic and mechanical systems integration. Its capabilities cover design and engineering support, manufacturing, box-build assembly, systems assembly, fulfillment, and after-market services. The company traces its corporate history to Meridian Electronics, which was incorporated in 1994. Meridian had expanded to approximately $28 million in annual revenue by 1999. EE Technologies was subsequently spun off from Meridian Electronics in March 2000, establishing the corporate identity under which it operated as an independent electronics manufacturing services provider. In October 2000, the company moved into a new facility in South Reno, Nevada. It later expanded that site by approximately 25,000 square feet in December 2002. EE Technologies developed a cross-border manufacturing network serving customers in the Americas and Mexico. A significant expansion occurred in October 2005, when the company opened a facility in Empalme, Sonora, Mexico. The Mexican operation was designed to mirror the equipment, processes, and training used at the Reno facility. Both sites were described as ISO/TS 16949:2002 certified, a quality standard particularly relevant to automotive production and supplier requirements. The company’s production scope includes circuit board assembly and complete electronic and mechanical box-build assembly. Its market coverage has included automotive, medical, military, and digital audio/video applications. This positioning places EE Technologies between a specialized electronics assembler and a broader contract manufacturer capable of delivering integrated assemblies and related fulfillment or post-production services. EE Technologies was recognized in 2007 among the top 20 contract manufacturers in the western United States. The available reference material also described a workforce of more than 180 employees across facilities in the United States and Mexico. A regulatory matter involving the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency resulted in an $80,000 settlement related to failures to file required reports concerning toxic chemicals. Publicly available material supplied for this dossier does not establish the company’s current ownership, leadership, website, financial condition, or operating status, so those fields remain unspecified.

EE Technologies began as Meridian Electronics, incorporated in 1994. The business expanded during the late 1990s and had reached approximately $28 million in annual revenue by 1999. In March 2000, EE Technologies was spun off from Meridian Electronics, marking the transition to the company identity associated with its electronic manufacturing services operations. Following the separation, the company expanded its physical infrastructure. In October 2000, it moved into a new facility in South Reno, Nevada. The Reno site was later enlarged by approximately 25,000 square feet in December 2002. These investments supported the company’s role as an outsourced manufacturing partner capable of handling more than individual circuit-board production. EE Technologies’ service model encompassed design and engineering, printed circuit board assembly, electronic and mechanical box-build assembly, systems assembly, fulfillment, and after-market support. Its customer base was described as original equipment manufacturers operating across several sectors, including automotive, medical, military, and digital audio/video equipment. This combination of production and support services allowed the company to participate in multiple stages of an equipment maker’s product lifecycle. The company established a manufacturing presence in Mexico in October 2005 by opening a facility in Empalme, Sonora. The Mexico operation was intended to reproduce the equipment, processes, and employee training used in Reno. The two facilities were described as ISO/TS 16949:2002 certified, reflecting an emphasis on quality systems relevant to automotive and other demanding manufacturing environments. By 2007, EE Technologies had received recognition as one of the top 20 contract manufacturers in the western United States. Reference material also described the company as employing more than 180 people across its U.S. and Mexican facilities. The available account does not provide a later corporate chronology, current ownership information, named executives, or a confirmed current website. Consequently, the company’s present operating status cannot be established with confidence from the supplied sources. EE Technologies also faced an environmental reporting matter. It reportedly settled a lawsuit with the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency for $80,000 after failing to file required reports concerning toxic chemicals. The available material does not provide the filing dates, the specific substances involved, or additional details about the resolution.
