Description of the Business
 
The Company currently specializes in contracting services, with 54 (12 full-time and 42 part-time union) employees in one operation center, offering communications infrastructure services through its wholly-owned domestic subsidiary, WPCS International - Suisun City, Inc. (“Suisun City Operations”).
 
Communication infrastructure services include low voltage communications contracting services offered to the public services, healthcare, energy and corporate enterprise markets. The Company provides an integrated approach to project coordination that creates cost-effective solutions. Corporations, government entities, healthcare organizations and educational institutions depend on the reliability and accuracy of voice, data and video communications. However, the potential for this new technology cannot be realized without the right infrastructure to support the convergence of technology. In this regard, The Company creates integrated building systems, including the installation of advanced structured cabling systems. The Company specializes in wireless technology and a combination of various technologies to develop a cost effective network for a customer's wireless communication requirements. This includes Wi-Fi networks, point-to-point systems, cellular networks, in-building systems and two-way communication systems. The Company supports the integration of telecommunications, life safety, security and HVAC and design for future growth by building in additional capacity for expansion as new capabilities are added.
