Siemens, Jabil Announce Plan for U.S. Manufacturing Facility

Siemens and Jabil will jointly operate a new manufacturing facility in Virginia to boost U.S. production of medium-voltage switchgear and integrated power-distribution tools. The facility, spanning 300,000 square feet, is designed to meet rising demand in data centers, utilities, and industrial sectors, with operations set to start in fall 2026. The $30 million investment will fund equipment, tooling, and production readiness, enabling faster delivery of critical power infrastructure components. Siemens aims to strengthen its U.S. supply chain and support electrification projects, while Jabil will expand its domestic manufacturing footprint, leveraging automation and robotics expertise. The facility will produce systems for data centers, utilities, and industrial power applications, addressing customer needs for quicker project timelines and reliable supply. Siemens’ Brian Dula noted the initiative helps shorten delivery times and reduce risks for clients under pressure to expand capacity. This project aligns with Siemens’ broader goal of reindustrializing the U.S. and reinforcing domestic supply chains. Jabil, with over 30 U.S. sites, will integrate its automation and process optimization experience to scale production efficiently.
