RCA Service Company
RCA Service Company (RCAS) was headquartered at Cherry Hill, New Jersey, and was a division of the Radio Corporation of America (RCA) created to service appliances and equipment manufactured by RCA.
RCAS was divided into three major groups:
- RCA Technical Services, which serviced the products manufactured by RCA for commercial customers such as broadcast equipment, computers, medical equipment, etc.
- RCA Government Services, which operated administrative government contracts such as the Ballistic Missile Early Warning System (BMEWS) sites around the world. (See below for a list of other contracts.) This division later became known as GE Government Services after General Electric acquired RCA in 1986.
- RCA Consumer Services.
Technical personnel employed by RCA Service Company, prior to it becoming RCA Government Services, were usually categorized as "global field service engineers".
