Integer Technologies supports U.S. national security customers by equipping them with innovative technology that provides a new capability. We do this by accelerating the development of scientific research into fielded systems that keep our country safe. Our core capabilities include: power & energy systems; unmanned systems, with an emphasis on maritime systems; digital engineering tools; and advanced composites manufacturing. Our mission is to create a safer world by translating scientific discoveries into reliable products that address urgent national security needs... at the speed of relevance. The best concepts that emerge from our research are developed into reliable products that make an impact on our customers' missions. These missions are the focus and guiding light for our innovation. They also provide the litmus test and the great equalizer for all our innovation. It's one thing to do great research and make a discovery... it's another thing to prove its utility by putting that research into action. To accomplish this mission, we partner with top research universities to bring the most promising innovations from academia into our customers' hands through collaborative applied research. We are deeply integrated with our university partners, which enables us to develop new concepts into functional prototypes faster than the competition, recruit top talent from academia, and reward our employees with the thrill of working on a team that is on the cutting-edge of their research field.
