Dicar Inc. Acquires Ibarra Bros Manufacturing in Santa Clara, California

Dicar Manufacturing Solutions, a leading Silicon Valley manufacturer of custom cable assemblies, electrical harnesses and electromechanical assemblies, has acquired Santa Clara-based manufacturing firm Ibarra Bros. Terms of the transaction were not announced.

"This acquisition allows better control over quality and cost of sub-assemblies, reduces dependency and minimizes the supply chain," said Ed Garcia, president of Dicar Manufacturing Solutions.

Ibarra Bros. specializes in fabrication and assembly of small, high-precision metal and sheet metal devices for commercial applications, including the connector and microwave industries.

Continued Garcia, "Bringing Ibarra Bros. into our operation provides our customer base with more extensive capabilities that help reduce their supply chain, as well. It strengthens our commitment to growing Dicar Manufacturing Solutions and to our loyal customers. This makes Dicar Manufacturing Solutions a more attractive partner for high mix/low volume OEM's looking for turnkey support for their product line."

It also provides services such as JIT material management programs (kan-ban), documentation design/support (Auto CAD, etc.), component specification/verification, and rapid prototyping.
