A key strategic objective is to improve our revenue predictability, and by participating in Programs of Record this will increase predictability by securing stable, long-term multi-year contracts.
The compatibility of DTC’s mesh radio with Kägwerks’ technology is highly complementary for our existing business. Together Tactical Communications and Kägwerks represent a full solutions provider that will increase opportunities across key military and law enforcement markets.
