Who We Are

Concepts To Operations, Inc. (CTO) is a Maryland corporation founded in 1990, by Senior
Telecommunications Engineers who have worked together in the field since 1981, and whose

Our Mission

CTO's mission is to provide the highest quality engineering, innovative consulting and
comprehensive project management services to our clients.

We seek to meet our clients' needs with exceptional engineering services, as well as providing
analysts with experience in client operations processes to ensure all recommendations best
meet our clients’ technical and operational requirements. CTO’s belief is that technical issues
should not be “the tail wagging the dog”. Technical solutions should support operational
processes, not change them. To help ensure the highest work products CTO maintains an
active Quality Assurance Program.

Our wealth of experience allows our staff to "hit the ground running" on every project
and to provide extremely cost-effective services. These services involve system planning,
design and build-out, from the initial Concepts To the final Operations, thus ensuring
the uniquely developed system accommodates our client’s present and projected needs.

of public safety, federal government, and commercial telecommunications projects. Our
staff members include Telecommunications Engineers certified by the National Association of
Radio and Telecommunications Engineers (NARTE), and Emergency Number Professionals (ENP)
