Who We Are

ISRD is a private limited liability corporation operating in California and several other states within the United States. The company boasts an extensive portfolio of intellectual property, consisting of patented technologies, trade secrets, and other valuable assets developed over a period of 30 years. ISRD operates as a virtual entity, utilizing the expertise of employees located in multiple states within the US and internationally.

What We Sell, Our Product

Our corporation generates smaller corporations which are offered to partners as a “product.” These smaller corporations serve as the partner’s subsidiary for Installed Sales and provide field services on a national or international scale for the products sold by the partner. This “product” serves as an alternative to the partner acquiring existing field service companies, as the subsidiary is custom-built to the partner’s specifications before being acquired directly from our corporation. The “product” may be viewed as a reverse engineered acquisition for the benefit of the partner.

Why We Sell

The installed sales industry heavily relies on a complex interconnection of individuals contributing to the industry, often without realizing they are working together. This is referred to as a “large-scale, open, sociotechnical system” in academic circles. At ISRD, we shift the reliance on “human delivery” to “product delivery” through the utilization of proprietary processes. We follow a structured approach of first architecting product solutions and then developing these solutions, resulting in a ready-to-deliver product. ISRD operates the subsidiary until it attains operational maturity and meets critical performance indicators (CPIs) in the areas of Effectiveness, Automation, Satisfaction, and Sustainability (EASS). Upon achieving these performance metrics, the subsidiary is sold to the partner in a turnkey transaction.

How We Do It

At ISRD, our passion goes beyond just making profits. We believe in the impact of our work and the positive difference it makes in society. Our product brings together diverse groups and enhances collaboration between blue-collar contractors, white-collar retailers, manufacturers, distributors, logistics companies, third-party vendors, and end consumers. Our team members take great pride in their contributions to the community and are motivated by their career growth, exposure to cutting-edge technology and advancements in complex system architecting, automation, machine learning, and artificial empathetic persuasion. Additionally, ISRD offers a competitive compensation package, attractive bonus plan, and the opportunity for corporate equity sharing, further fueling our team’s commitment to excellence.

How We Are Perceived

ISRD, a high-level engineering and productization company, specializes in the architecture and development of a cognitive robotics business process automation engine. This engine generates installed sales corporations as a product. Although the product functions as an installation company for partners, ISRD is occasionally misperceived as an installation company. The ISRD International Standard Industrial Classification (ISIC) code is 64.19, “Activities of Holding Companies,” while the product produced by ISRD aligns with the ISIC code 43.22, “Installation of industrial machinery and equipment,” which pertains to companies that install products in residential environments.
