IST Research delivers decision support innovation to the EDGE. We Deliver First, IST Research is an engineering company with an operational focus. Our team is comprised of engineers and scientists that have executed research and development projects for some of the nations premier research agencies. We have delivered innovation into some of the harshest conditions imaginable. Partnership and collaboration drive our technical approach and whether we create the solutions in house or help integrate technologies of others with emerging operational concepts, we conduct our work with others. Decision Support Innovation Second, our innovations focus on decision-making and the interaction between the human/organizational decision process and the digital information environment. Our innovations come when decision makers and technologists immerse in a problem solving process together where the human decision process influences technical solutions and innovation influences the decision processes and the result is a fundamental change. To the Edge Finally, we are interested in the development of solutions that serve operators that operate at the edge. The edge refers not to a specific place or a narrowly defined set of characteristics but simply to that place where support, network reliability, power and other resources are scarce. The operators we serve are tired, dirty and hungry. They are operating at the Edge.
