Integense Microelectronics

We’re proud to share a major milestone in Integense Microelectronics’ journey:
Our company has officially achieved ISO 9001:2015 certification for Quality Management and ISO 14001:2015 certification for Environmental Management-across all three of our U.S. locations in San Jose, San Diego, and Colorado Springs.

What makes this achievement even more remarkable?
We passed our initial certification audits without a single major or minor non-conformity-a rare accomplishment that speaks to the rigor, commitment, and collaboration of our entire team.

 

What These Certifications Mean

  • ISO 9001 validates the strength of our quality management system, from design and development to testing and service.
  • ISO 14001 affirms our commitment to environmental responsibility, with procedures in place to manage our impact and uphold sustainable practices.

Together, these certifications don’t just reinforce trust with existing customers—they’re opening doors to new engagements and accelerating business development across our PureMag, ATE, and TPH product lines.

 

“This milestone isn’t just a certification-it’s a launchpad. We’re already seeing tangible results, including over 100 million units forecasted in the coming years, with new opportunities accelerating across PureMag, ATE, and TPH. It’s a direct outcome of the team’s focus, adaptability, and execution.” - Carlos Rodriguez, Chief Operating Officer

 

Recognizing the Team Behind the Work

The executive team would like to extend a special and heartfelt thank you to Michael Dueweke, Senior Director of Quality Engineering and Foundry Operations. His leadership, preparation, and meticulous attention to detail were the driving force behind this success. Michael led the ISO certification initiative with an unwavering focus and a level of dedication that set the tone for the entire organization. From creating and organizing comprehensive documentation to managing the most nuanced aspects of the audit process, his diligence, clarity, and operational discipline were instrumental. This effort not only resulted in a flawless certification outcome-it raised the bar for excellence across the company.

Mike Dueweke would like to extend a special thank you to our global team for their cross-functional effort. With deep appreciation, he recognizes the following contributors:

  • Ryan Willems, Lab Manager, for creating lab ESD guidelines and material handling procedures that strengthened our ISO 14001 compliance.
  • Nicole Chappell, Office Manager, for her support in preparing audit materials and documentation in San Jose.
  • David Touney, Director of Program Management, for helping draft specifications, guiding audit participation, and keeping the team aligned.
  • Dianna Rodriguez, Marketing and Operations Manager, for creating the web-based customer survey, which was recognized by the auditor as a standout component of our QMS.
  • Chris Edwards, DMTS, VP of Engineering, for his contributions to design and development.
  • Scott Davis, Chief Financial Officer, and Haibo Fei, Design Center Manager - both based out of our San Diego office - for their professionalism during audit Q&A sessions.
  • Kristine Adams-Rego, SMTS Layout Manager, and John Kerley, DMTS Analog Designer - both based out of our Colorado Springs office - for their audit readiness and timely actions-especially Kristine’s “Design Best Practices” document, which received praise from the auditor.

And to everyone else on our team who helped review, refine, and implement our procedures, thank you for your dedication.
