About the company
Motorola Solutions, Inc. delivers essential communication and data analysis capabilities vital for critical operations across the United States, the United Kingdom, Canada, and other international markets. The company structures its extensive operations into two primary segments: Products and Systems Integration, and Software and Services. The Products and Systems Integration division offers a comprehensive suite of infrastructure, various devices, accessories, and video security solutions, alongside expert services for the deployment and seamless integration of systems, hardware, software, and specialized applications. This segment caters to governmental bodies, public safety agencies, and commercial enterprises that rely on private communication networks, advanced video security systems, and robust tools for managing mobile workforces. Their product portfolio spans land mobile radio (LMR) communication equipment, such as portable and vehicle-mounted two-way radios, as well as video security and access control hardware, including fixed and mobile cameras. It also encompasses core radio network software and central processing systems, base stations, consoles, and repeaters, in addition to sophisticated video analytics, network video management hardware and software, and access control solutions. Conversely, the Software and Services segment focuses on providing critical support and advanced software. This includes hardware repair, comprehensive technical assistance, and ongoing maintenance. Furthermore, the segment delivers proactive monitoring, regular software updates, and robust cybersecurity services. It develops specialized public safety and enterprise command center software, unified communications applications, and video software solutions, which are accessible through both on-premise installations and cloud-based "as a service" models. Like the product division, this segment also serves government, public safety, and commercial clientele. Motorola Solutions, Inc. was established in 1928, initially operating as Motorola, Inc. before adopting its current name in January 2011. Its corporate headquarters are situated in Chicago, Illinois.
