About Thompson Engineering
Established in 1971, Thompson Engineering initially focused on the educational market. In 1972, Thompson Engineering became a distributor of Rauland-Borg Corporation. Rauland has long enjoyed a reputation as a key player in the development and sale of electronic systems in the educational and healthcare marketplace.
After establishing a solid reputation within the educational market, Thompson expanded its focus to include the healthcare market. Thompson currently has systems in over 100 school districts and many hospitals and other healthcare facilities within the three counties in which it operates. In the healthcare market, it has continued to foster its relationship with Rauland-Borg, which is one of the largest suppliers of nurse call equipment in the United States.
