I have a client that is "hardening" his network and now wants no Chinese based products or mfgs. Even only USA based mfgs possibly........So, I'm looking for options for him.
What high quality systems are you guys using for those clients that will pay?

Take a good look @ Wave's Illumivue. They are Chinese made, but not affiliated with Chinese government, and they are fully NDAA and FCC compliant. The app is great.

Savant and C4 drivers available and more to come soon.

"...but not affiliated with Chinese government..."- how do they control that and when WILL the CCp take over?

I wouldn't believe that for a minute.

Look for products made in South Korea.

So far all the brands suggested here is either a Hikvision or Dahua OEM. CHINESE government.

We can debate the risks in using any of these OEMs (I have no problem using 'some' of them), but the OP specifically ask for non-Chinese OEM products.

That makes for a short list:
ACTi
Arecent Vision
AXIS
Bosch
Mobotix
Panasonic
Hanwha
Sony
Speco
Unifi
Vivotek

There are a few others. I had a chart that showed all the brands in the world and where they were made. Can't find it right now.
Interestingly enough = Google & Ring are not a China OEM but are made there, just like most things still. I would argue however Ring is worse than the Chinese government... by far. Do the research, it should be common knowledge at this point.

Thank you all for your responses. I'm still gathering information for this project. But it's actually helping us to have better knowledge of what other products are available. Not even just the "Chinese" issues but better quality and features.
Please feel free to add any input or products you like regarding this post. Thanks again

Digital Watchdog is made in Korea, too.
