On the 1st March 2008, the Warsaw-based Przemysłowy Instytut Telekomunikacji existing over 75 years was transformed into a sole-owner State Treasury joint stock company but still having status of a Research & Development Center. In December 2009 Minister of State Treasury transferred 80 % euqity of PIT S.A. to capital group Bumar sp. z o.o., a largest Polish holding of military equipment. Since January 2010 PIT S.A. is a official member of Bumar Group. The today's Przemysłowy Instytut Telekomunikacji S.A. (PIT S.A.) has around 700 high-skilled employees in the Warsaw headquarter and in the Gdańsk and Wrocław divisions. The new established company follows its activities of recent decades including the research and development in the area of radar technology, command control systems and electronic recognition systems. The origins of radar technology in PIT S.A. go back to the end of forties and that of command and control systems of sixties. So long period of activity allowed the Institute to develop a solid base of experiences, application and skills in all these related matters.
