OUR MISSION STATEMENT
Microwave Innovations is committed to providing creative product solutions, exceeding customer expectations, while diligently reviewing and continually improving quality.
OUR HISTORY
Microwave Innovations, Inc. (MI) was founded in 1996 to support the Telemetry, Tracking & Control (TT&C) industries. Our president’s experience and skilled team design and build innovative telemetry products that have become often the recognized “go-to standards” in the telemetry community for high reliability and performance products.
Microwave Innovations’ core expertise spans the full range of telemetry needs from design to production of high-reliability flight components for Munitions, Aviation, and Space Launch needs. MI’s long history of rapid development and production of complex and demanding requirements brings both aerospace companies large and small, back time and again for their telemetry needs.
Microwave Innovations’ growth over the last two decades is a testament to our customer focus, quality, performance, and Reliability, and our record in achieving those goals. We have been acknowledged through awards and high vendor ratings for our dedication to customer success, from a single mission research experiment transmitter, to the multi-unit per monthly production effort on high-visibility programs.
PROGRAMS
Since being founded, Microwave Innovations has supported a widely varied customer base, and associated product type. Many unique designs yielded from use of our standard building blocks used across product lines. In other cases, completely new designs have been provided to programs.
The product lines all have experienced growth over the years which may include increases in power levels, frequency ranges, and increasing levels of product complexity, all the while feeding greater and greater levels of reliability and program rigor.
The migration may be summarized as relatively simple single frequency PCM/FM transmitters servicing a ballistic munition program, to present day multi-mode, multi band, extreme data rate digital modulations servicing defensive ICBM programs key to the US Strategic deterrent while obtaining RCC324 levels of compliance and qualification. Microwave Innovations is proud to be a supplier to many branches of the US Armed forces ,either directly or indirectly as a sub tier contractor, helping to insure that the warfighters have the very best tools at their disposal.
CUSTOMER FOCUS
Responsiveness
To provide superior customer support by being responsive, available, and making our customers’ engineers, buyers, program managers, and their line technicians installing the hardware on the line know they are equally supported by their assigned internal MI Point-of-Contact (POC) and their area representative.
Product Performance
To provide the best performing product available, starting with a complete technical review and a full understanding of customers’ requirements and needs, then a recommendation of the best design solution with a ready to fly design or a custom solution, with an emphasis on cost-effectiveness and delivery.
Quality
To provide the highest quality product and support possible, with a company-wide QMS focus on our customers’ mission, “Our customers’ success is our success”.
