EMS Solutions, a premier regional provider of Electronics Manufacturing Services (EMS), has been honored with the Patriot Award from the Office of the Secretary of Defense, Employer Support of the Guard and Reserve (ESGR) in recognition of its support for employees who serve in the National Guard and Reserve.

The award was presented following a nomination from Anahi Flores, an EMS Solutions employee and member of the Army National Guard. Flores nominated the company to acknowledge the flexibility, understanding, and encouragement she has received while balancing her civilian role with military training and service obligations.

The Patriot Award recognizes supervisors and employers who are nominated by Guard or Reserve members for providing meaningful support, including accommodating military schedules and fostering a workplace environment that respects service to the nation.

“When I submitted the nomination, I knew there were many organizations across the country doing great work, and I didn’t expect us to be selected,” said Flores. “EMS Solutions has consistently supported my role in the Guard, and I wanted to highlight that.”

EMS Solutions provides electronic manufacturing services including surface mount and through-hole assembly, testing, depaneling, and quality inspection. The company serves customers in industrial, communications, medical, and consumer electronics markets, producing high-mix, high-quality assemblies from its U.S.-based operations.

“We’re proud to support our employees who serve and grateful for the work they do both here and in uniform,” said Jesse Westbroek, President of EMS Solutions. “This recognition reflects the culture we strive to maintain across the company.”
