3PS, Inc.

What 3PS, Inc. does

3PS, Inc. is a privately held sensor manufacturer headquartered in Cedar Park, Texas, founded in 1999 and operating with a workforce of 11–50 employees. The company designs and manufactures both wireless and hardwired sensors engineered for deployment across three distinct installation regimes: air, ground, and permanently underwater. The inclusion of permanently underwater installations as a core capability is a notable specialization, implying competence in pressure-tolerant electronics, corrosion resistance, long-duration power systems, and reliable subsea communication — areas that carry meaningful technical complexity relative to the firm's small footprint.

The product portfolio centers on physical sensing hardware rather than software platforms or AI-enabled analytics; the available data does not describe specific product families, sensor modalities (e.g., pressure, temperature, acoustic, chemical), or target industries. Mark Gendor serves as Chief Technology Officer, providing technical leadership continuity, but no further management team, board, or advisory information is publicly documented. The company maintains a web presence at 3psinc.com.

Revenue mechanics, pricing model, go-to-market channels, customer segments, and geographic reach are not disclosed in the available source material. The firm's small headcount, private status, and specialized harsh-environment focus suggest a niche B2B or government/defense-oriented business, but this is not confirmed. No funding rounds, partnerships, acquisitions, or recent strategic actions are documented in the input data, and the company_description should be read as the upper bound of what the evidence supports rather than a comprehensive corporate profile.
