Build America, Buy America (BABA) Compliance at Applied Information

What It Means to Be BABA Compliant

 The Build America, Buy America Act requires that federally funded infrastructure projects use products manufactured in the United States with a majority of domestically sourced components. BABA compliance ensures that equipment deployed on eligible federal projects supports American jobs and domestic supply chains without requiring special waivers.

Applied Information and the BABA Standard

Applied Information provides BABA compliant hardware that is manufactured in the USA for transportation and intelligent infrastructure projects. Our solutions are designed, assembled, and tested in Alpharetta, Georgia using components that meet the Build America, Buy America requirement of exceeding 55 percent domestic content. This commitment ensures our made in America products are eligible for use on federally funded projects without the need for waivers.

As transportation agencies continue to modernize infrastructure, having reliable access to domestically manufactured ITS and connected vehicle hardware has become increasingly important. Applied Information supports these nationwide goals by maintaining U.S. based production capabilities and supply chain processes that align with BABA requirements, enabling agencies to integrate advanced technologies with confidence in both technical performance and domestic sourcing compliance.
