Summary of Products and Services


Remote Sensor Systems and Technologies For Military And Intelligence Applications

EOIR provides advanced remote sensing technology products and services to the DOD and to various other United States intelligence agencies. EOIR's most significant source of revenues is an Omnibus Contract with the United States Army Night Vision and Electronic Sensors Directorate. The Omnibus Contract has an extensive and varied scope that requires us to provide a very broad range of products and technical services. For those products and technical services that EOIR does not possess in-house, we subcontract to our team members and other subcontractors as necessary. As a prime contractor, EOIR is responsible for the technical performance of all of its products and services delivered to the customer. Primary revenue streams are derived from the delivery of products and services which provide the customer with: advanced development product concepts; low volume produced prototypes; advanced signal processing algorithms and software; advanced systems integration; engineering and evaluation services; data collection and processing capabilities and other highly differentiated and proprietary products and services.
