Integrated Cable Assembly Holdings

What Integrated Cable Assembly Holdings does

Integrated Cable Assembly Holdings (ICA Holdings) is a US-based contract manufacturer of custom wire harnesses, cable assemblies, and electromechanical assemblies, operating a network of five manufacturing facilities across the US (North Carolina, Wisconsin, New Hampshire, Georgia) and Mexico (Nogales, Sonora), supplemented by a sales office in Tucson, Arizona. The company serves Fortune 500 OEMs and multibillion-dollar international manufacturers across more than thirty end markets, including specialty vehicles, recreational vehicles, industrial equipment, energy, communications, aerospace, LED lighting, marine, medical devices, and military/defense. Named enterprise customers include Textron and several large undisclosed specialty-vehicle and industrial OEMs with documented multi-year, multi-hundred-part-number relationships.

ICA's core products fall into three categories: wire harnesses (ranging from single-lead to 1,000+ circuit assemblies), specialty cable assemblies (multi-conductor, coaxial, triaxial, ethernet, pig-tail), and electromechanical sub-assemblies (connector attachments, power distribution enclosures, terminal blocks). The manufacturing technology base includes automated six-station wire processing equipment combining marking, cutting, insulation stripping, terminal crimping, and seal insertion; conveyor-based assembly systems supporting boards up to 4ft × 8ft; ultrasonic welding for high-volume wire splicing; in-house test and fixturing using Dynalab and Cirrus hardware/software for continuity, Hi-Pot, color-detection, and leak testing; and CAD-based harness design engineering from quotation through delivery. Additional capabilities include overmolding of connectors and cables, heavy-gauge power lead processing (6AWG to 4/0AWG), high-flex cable assemblies, fiber-optic termination, pneumatic flow control harnesses, and braiding/protective coverings.

Revenue is generated through project-based quotes and ongoing production contracts with a custom, quote-based pricing model tied to complexity, volume, and specifications; multi-year contract cadence is typical. The company reports 1,200+ employees, 350,000 combined square feet of manufacturing space, and certifications across ISO 9001:2015, ISO 13485:2016 (medical), ISO 14001:2015, AS9100:D (aerospace), ITAR (defense), UL 508A, IPC-620A, IPC J-STD-001, IPC-A-610, and CSA. Since September 2022, ICA has operated as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Amphenol Corporation.
