Vision
Our vision is to build a consulting and engineering services firm that
is widely regarded for its technical acuity, its breadth of knowledge
and its innovation in providing solutions for our customers. We embrace
technology and seek its application to challenging problems in the
aerospace industry, focusing on advanced space missions such as human
exploration of the Moon and Mars, satellite formations and
constellations, and autonomous spacecraft. In doing so, we leverage our
deep understanding of spacecraft guidance, navigation and control;
satellite ground systems; and mission automation and autonomy with
practical life-cycle experience.
Mission
Our mission is to deliver high impact, high value solutions to our
customers through our intellectual prowess and our understanding of
space and information technology. With over 50% of our employees having
an advanced degree, we focus on tough problems, where theory meets
mission application.
Values
Emergent truly values its customers, and is dedicated to getting the
job done. When we say we will do something, we do it. Customer
satisfaction is always our top priority. Emergent also values its
employees. We are committed to providing a challenging and stimulating
work environment that promotes and facilitates teamwork, yet also
advances individual learning and growth. We provide a work environment
that is conducive to a high level of customer success and corporate
achievement, but within a fun and low-key atmosphere that leads to
employee satisfaction and minimizes turnover. These commitments to our
customers and our employees result from our core values of integrity,
respect, and accountability.
History
Emergent Space Technologies, Inc. was founded in 2001 with the goal of
bringing modern information technology to the aerospace industry. Our
objective was to combine knowledge of emerging technologies from the
web, Internet, e-commerce industries with our broad and deep space
mission engineering experience to enable autonomous spacecraft
operations. The initial market for our services was to be created by
NASA's satellite formation and constellation missions. As their launch
dates moved further out, however, we trained our sights on rendezvous,
proximity operations, and cislunar navigation for NASA's exploration
and science missions. As we grew, we broadened our customer base to
include other civil, commercial, and military customers, e.g., NOAA,
Intelsat, and DARPA. Along the way, Emergent has experienced rapid
growth, almost doubling in staff and revenue each year. While doing so,
Emergent has achieved a high level of customer success and employee
satisfaction.
