What TASK does
TASK Micro-Electronics Inc. is a privately held, founder-led Canadian contract manufacturer specializing in miniaturized and ruggedized electronics packaging. Founded in 1987 by Doug Bellevue in Kirkland, Quebec, the company operates a single 41,000 sq. ft. state-of-the-art facility with controlled clean rooms where it performs all manufacturing, engineering, sales, and administrative functions under one roof. The company sells custom microelectronics manufacturing services rather than off-the-shelf products, with a vertically segmented go-to-market targeting medical electronics (its primary vertical), high-end industrial, defense and security, aerospace and avionics, oil and gas, and optics and sensing.
Core capabilities are organized around three service pillars. Design Support covers microelectronics design, schematic review, miniaturization, and Design for Manufacturability (DFx). Validation and Pre-Production covers R&D, feasibility, prototyping, and qualification documentation including Device Master Record (DMR), Device History Record (DHR), and FMEA support. Manufacturing spans wire bonding (thin to heavy gauge, gold and aluminum, ball-stitch, wedge, automatic stud bumping, coining, deep access), die placement and attachment with placement accuracy down to 10 µm across substrates including FR4, flex, ceramic, glass, IMS, Kapton, and AlN, complex multi-process assemblies (chip-on-flip-chip, chip-on-chip, 3D stacked dies, flex-on-ceramic hybrids), thick-film printing on 96% Al2O3 alumina substrates, fully automated SMT lines with 01005 placement, laser trimming to 0.5% tolerance, encapsulation (globtop, dam-and-fill, flood-fill), laser marking, dicing, and electrical testing.
Revenue mechanics are quote-based: TASK prices work per customer specification rather than via published catalogs or SaaS subscriptions. The company is qualified to demanding standards relevant to its regulated end markets — AS9100D for aerospace, ISO 13485:2016 for medical devices, ISO 9001:2015 for general manufacturing, and MIL-STD-883 / IPC-A-610 / IPC-A-600 / IPC-6013 for defense and electronics acceptability — giving it access to qualification-intensive programs in Class III implants, avionics, and ruggedized defense electronics. Distribution is direct B2B; the company maintains a corporate website (English and French) and accepts inquiries via [email protected], with no resellers or distributors. There is no disclosed external investment, parent company, or recapitalization event.
