JAECO takes pride in manufacturing high-quality precision metering pumps in the United States. Our trusted solutions have served industries across America with outstanding performance for decades.  

The Build America, Buy America Act (BABAA) has transformed state and federal infrastructure project requirements. This essential legislation ensures federal funds support domestic manufacturing and strengthen local economies. As a result, public utility project managers must carefully select equipment that meets the requirements of the law.

Read on to learn more about the value of buying JAECO metering pumps under BABAA.

Understanding the Build America, Buy America Act (BABAA)

The Build America, Buy America Act (BABAA) was created in 2021 as part of the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act. The law requires that U.S. government projects use materials made in the United States, including iron, steel, and manufactured goods. It mandates that products used in federal infrastructure projects contain at least 55% U.S.-made components. These standards apply across all federal programs, making compliance essential for project success.

BABAA strengthens domestic manufacturing, creating jobs and reinforcing supply chains nationwide. Local production supports regional economies by boosting employment and fostering supplier partnerships. The law promotes long-term economic stability, builds resilient infrastructure, and reduces reliance on foreign materials.

Why a Made in the U.S.A. Metering Pump is the Best 

Public utilities can significantly reduce long-term maintenance costs by choosing USA-manufactured metering pumps. Premium metal components make them more durable than foreign models that utilize cheap plastic parts. JAECO metering pumps have consistently demonstrated reliable performance across various challenging environments.

Domestic manufacturing also offers unparalleled support and responsiveness. A quick call connects customers directly to our technical team for immediate assistance—a stark contrast to overseas manufacturers, who often take days or weeks to acknowledge service requests. This swift support capability is crucial for minimizing downtime in critical infrastructure applications like water treatment and chemical processing.
