Six Ways We Win—And Help Our Customers Win Too
M&A
Standex Electronics has a strong track record of disciplined, bolt-on acquisitions that drive growth and innovation. Since 2017, we’ve completed 12 acquisitions that have expanded our technical depth, market coverage, and global footprint. Each acquisition is integrated with a clear strategic purpose, whether adding new technologies like planar magnetics, strengthening our high-voltage capabilities, or deepening our expertise in sensing. This repeatable playbook enables us to enter high-growth markets quickly while delivering long-term value to customers and shareholders alike.
Global Supply Chain
Standex Electronics operates a resilient, regionally diversified supply chain that reduces risk and ensures reliability. With vertically integrated facilities across North America, Europe, and Asia, we maintain local responsiveness with global scalability. This infrastructure supports just-in-time delivery, compliance with regional requirements, and continuity in the face of disruption. It’s a strategic advantage that translates to speed, certainty, and confidence for our customers.
Culture & Talent Profile
We win because of our people. Our global team includes engineers, designers, and problem-solvers who are passionate about technical excellence and customer impact. We foster a positive, inclusive workplace that values curiosity, ownership, and continuous learning. From early career development to advanced training, we empower our teams to grow and in doing so, we elevate the entire organization.
Customer Intimacy
We don’t just sell components, we engineer relationships. Our customer intimacy model is built on trust, responsiveness, and collaboration. From co-locating design teams to customizing solutions for unique specs, we work side-by-side with engineers to understand real-world needs. This approach results in better designs, shorter timelines, and solutions that outperform expectations. Our customers see us as an extension of their team, not just a supplier.
Operational Excellence
Efficiency is engineered into everything we do. Our continuous improvement culture is grounded in lean practices, rigorous quality systems, and data-driven decision-making. We invest in automation, training, and cross-functional alignment to optimize throughput without compromising precision. This operational discipline ensures high yield, low defect rates, and cost-competitive delivery, every time.
Innovation
Innovation at Standex is practical, purposeful, and customer-driven. We invest in R&D to solve next-generation challenges in electrification, miniaturization, energy efficiency, and automation. Whether reimagining planar transformer design for harsh aerospace conditions or engineering ultra-reliable reed switches for smart appliances, our innovations are shaped by real-world use cases. The result: solutions that perform better, integrate faster, and help customers win.
