Technology Evolution

Meets Engineering Innovation

Cutting-edge design, engineering, manufacturing, and smart technology integration since 1984. Combining advanced engineering with creative problem solving to bring bold ideas to life.

From Idea to Impact

Founded by engineer and inventor Mark Matheny, the company began with a simple but powerful idea: help bring other people's ideas to life by creating a true one-stop shop for innovation. From the earliest stages of concept and design through development, prototyping, manufacturing, and beyond, the goal was always the same: turn ideas into real working technologies. What started as an engineering driven design and contract manufacturing house quickly became a place where complex ideas could be explored, built, and refined. Mark built a reputation for solving difficult technical problems and creating products that often pushed beyond what was considered possible at the time. Over the years the company expanded into multiple technology ventures, developing integrated electronics systems, RF technologies, advanced manufacturing processes, and proprietary product lines. Innovation was never limited to a single industry. The focus was always on building solutions that worked in the real world. When his daughter Alaina joined the company, she brought her own experience and strong instinct for identifying where technology could make the greatest impact. She recognized the growing need to pair advanced systems with solutions designed to help keep people safe both domestically and abroad. That next chapter began in the security sector, developing technologies focused on lockdown systems, monitoring, and tracking solutions for schools and municipalities. As those technologies evolved, the company naturally expanded into the defense space, developing smart weapons systems and advanced technologies designed for real world operational environments. Together, Mark's inventor mindset and Alaina's ability to identify emerging needs helped shape a company built not only on innovation but on purpose. Over the decades the company has developed technologies and products across engineering, electronics, security systems, tracking platforms, manufacturing, and defense solutions. Through every stage of that evolution, the mission has remained the same: build smarter technologies that solve real problems and help keep people safe.
