We Define the Edge

BTS is a values-driven partner with extensive experience developing and implementing technology-based solutions and services for the intelligence community and the military.

We Build Solutions that Save Lives

Founded in 2009, BTS earned a reputation for battlespace innovation by developing the first portable, tactical 3G network for the US Army. We’ve built on that foundation by continuing to solve modern security and defense challenges through cutting edge technology and highly-skilled teams of satisfied employees. As a proven innovator with deep entrepreneurial roots, BTS has spun out five successful commercial companies based on our advanced technologies and capabilities.

Veteran Owned, Led by Experts

A service-disabled veteran-owned small business (SDVOSB) headquartered in Columbia, MD, BTS specializes in intelligence operations, software development, advanced engineering, intelligence training, and strategic advisory services. We are led and staffed by seasoned intelligence experts, cyber operations trainers, planners and operators, data scientists, machine learning and artificial intelligence experts, and software, electrical, mechanical, and RF engineers. This uniquely skilled team provides support to Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA), the Missile Defense Agency (MDA), the Department of Defense (DOD), and the Intelligence Community (IC). Our employees have real-world, boots on the ground experience with all facets of intelligence and engineering support operations in the US and abroad, while our leadership team boasts over 50 years supporting Intelligence Security Command (INSCOM) and the Intelligence Community.
