History

In 1995, Raytheon Company acquired E-Systems, Inc.,[5] a Texas-based company that designed, developed, produced and serviced high technology systems including surveillance, verification, and aircraft ground-land navigation equipment. The company also developed electronics programs and systems for business, industrial, and non-defense government programs and agencies.[6] E-Systems was renamed Raytheon Intelligence and Information Systems.

In 2013, Raytheon Company announced the consolidation of its six internal business units to four.[7] Intelligence and Information Systems was combined with Raytheon Technical Services Company and renamed Raytheon Intelligence, Information and Services.
