Company Profile: Microwave Solutions, Inc

Company History

The name was chosen because we wanted to show we recognized that our real mission wasn’t just providing hardware, but rather that we were solving a customer’s technical problems.

The year 1984 was a good year to start a new microwave amplifier company! We knew this because right away we noticed we had a lot of competitors who were also recent start-ups. Our first order was from a major aero-space company for a dozen each of a thin-film amplifier operating at a classified Ku-band frequency. At that point we were basically just a three person comp any, the founder, one assembler and one technician, so for us, this was quite a technical, engineering, manufacturing and administrative challenge! We had to really work to get our Q/A and manufacturing capabilities qualified by our customer while at the same time doing the engineering designs and getting all the paperwork completed for our security clearance and all the other government regulations. Not only did we successfully complete that order but we were subsequently awarded additional contracts for hundreds of more units from that same customer sometimes competing, successfully, for the business against companies that had thousands of employees.

Our core products are still primarily custom microwave amplifiers. But we’ve also leveraged that capability into building a large variety of related products, such as modules that have phase shifters, couplers, filters, gain control, limiting and other microwave circuit functions in addition to amplification.
