The Border and Transportation Security business area provides solutions for border and perimeter security, and surveillance and tracking. Raytheon’s proven expertise in emergency management systems, advanced electronics and IT systems provides 21st-century solutions to tracking, monitoring and identifying potential threats.

Raytheon technology can strengthen air traffic management and public safety networks, and harness the technology to detect threats, protect against them, and respond to them.

Critical Infrastructure Protection
The proliferation of threats that exist today is undeniable. The perpetrators of these threats are likely to choose targets that will cause maximum terror, inflict local or worldwide economic harm, and cause loss of confidence in legitimate governing bodies.

To counter these threats, it is necessary to select an integrated solution designed according to the likely threat, target, value and consequence of possible attacks. Raytheon’s unique capabilities and experience can deliver.

Whether securing an oil refinery; nuclear facility; air, sea or rail port; or an entire border, Raytheon studies every aspect of the threat, the environment, our customer’s concept of operations, and the existing equipment and facilities. This allows us to deliver a complete set of capabilities that meets the unique requirements of each customer.

Crisis Management and EOCs
When it comes to designing the most effective security solutions possible, Raytheon uses all expertise at our disposal. This means harnessing our own advanced technological know-how and partnering with our customers and experienced teammates in the security field. As an integrator, Raytheon employs equipment and software solutions that are best suited to meet our customer’s specific security requirement. We are not tied to equipment from any particular supplier, including ourselves. The integrator’s responsibility — our responsibility — is to provide the customer with the best set of solutions within cost and support the defined parameters.

On one large-scale border security project, Raytheon led an integrated team of 30 major subcontractors over the course of six years. Working hand-in-hand with them, Raytheon successfully executed a $1.4 billion program from concept through procurement, including installation, integration, testing and logistical support.

Urban Surveillance and Security
Raytheon has led border and asset protection efforts around the globe, including South America, Eastern Europe and the Middle East. We are currently upgrading the security perimeter of New York City’s four major airports.

Raytheon isn’t designing border and infrastructure security solutions that only work for the short term; our involvement extends well into the future. Through ongoing maintenance, support and training, we maintain a current threat profile and ensure everyone remains proficient on the system — for decades into the future. This type of modernization path ensures that the customer is always receiving the latest security techniques and best practices.
