Integral System Engineering INFORMATION PAGE
Corporate Background
Founded in 811 A.S by Joseph Goldfield, Integral Systems Engineering (or ISE) started as a small semi-private corporation which was tied to the Crayter Republic.
With only a few employees and ever fewer ships, ISE wasn't seen as anything competitive to other Sirius corporations. Yet once the Crayterian Government saw the need for trade and profit, and backed up by the Colonial Military which needed a group to support military efforts, ISE was funded and most of it bought by the government. It then became the largest Crayterian Corporation which had contracts all over the Republic and even aided the military as a support industrial group and continued to grow and prosper.
As well as the Republic, the ISE also had contracts in the houses, and was even known as one of the largest companies to trade in Niobium, along with the Independent Miners Guild. While at first it had continued trade with mostly Rheinland and Kusari, political repercussions and other events caused the ISE to change their target to Bretonia, with only little interest in Liberty and with the routes to Kusari and Rheinland closed, along with the new Gallic threat, ISE was forced to stop it's trading and focus on aiding the Military with transportation and engineering. Resulting in hundreds of millions of loss of credits for the Republic.
The moving of the now Colonial Republic to the Coronado system started the first change in ISE for a long time. Marcus Wingates, a wealthy colonial working for the Ministry of Economics and a family member of the Wingates, stepped down from his position, and with his contacts in the government and military, bought the largest share of the ISE and had their contract renewed with the Republic. He also convinced several key politicians and commanders in the government and military, resulting in the pour in of enormous funds to the ISE, making it possible to restructure the whole corporation
Current Corporation Status
The ISE is still being restructured at a quick pace, with some key employees fired and new ones brought in their place, a large number of civilians are taking up the new jobs hungrily as the ISE offers good payment and accommodation, something most civilians are lacking while Pecos is being built. Due to the new location, ISE finds themselves closer to Bretonia and looking at possible profitable relations with the Republic of Liberty.
As the ISE has done since it was founded, their new HQ is in Crayterian Space, on the recently claimed Pecos, New Hope.
Today, the Crayter Republic calls upon its oldest and most able handed transport captains, bolstered by ranks of fresh young kids, flying transports until age permits them to join fighting units. This loose fraternity of transport skippers, both young and old, are the new Atlas, balancing the economy of the Crayter Republic on its shoulders. It’s a dangerous galaxy, but like all true Colonials, these old sailors and bright-eyed youths take to the job with the same strength of spirit as their brothers, sisters, sons, and daughters in the military.
Bases
New Hope, Pecos, Coronado
The ISE's new HQ is, as most bases on Pecos current are, underground. ISE's bunker construction is one of the largest underground bases, surrounded by thousands of tons of earth, and meters of reinforced armour plating to protect it against any and all attacks, just like all new Republic bases ,called Baresa Underground Complex.
Planet Yuma, Coronado.
The ISE HQ on planet Yuma is build on the floating city of New Corinth. The building is a marvellous glass tower , hence the name Mirror Tower. The building is guarded by the Crayterian Security Forces and a minor shield generator was installed to protect the building from any storms that may hit it.
