The company was involved in contracts with governmental and commercial satellite operators, which included the US Air Force, and Northrop Grumman.

Integral Systems’ RT Logic subsidiary built telemetry processing systems for military applications such as tracking stations, control centers, and range operations. Integrals’ Lumistar, Inc., subsidiary primarily designs and manufactures board-level telemetry products for PCI, VME, cPCI, and ISA computer buses. Subsidiary CVG-Avtec built and integrated satellite communication terminals and related equipment, including ground station hardware.

Integral Systems failed to disclose to its shareholders for over seven years that Gary A. Prince (“Prince”), who had previously been convicted of conspiracy to commit securities and bank fraud and enjoined from committing securities fraud in a civil action brought by the Commission, was an executive officer of the Company. Integral Systems failed to disclose Prince’s role at the company and his securities fraud background in its periodic reports and proxy statements filed from 1999 through August 8, 2006

In 2006, Integral's then-CEO and chairman, Steven R. Chamberlain, was convicted of felony sex offenses involving a minor and resigned. Chamberlain died in December 2009, according to U.S. District Court records

Integral built a $992,000 five-story, 125,000 sq. ft. tenant fit-out of a core and shell office building in Columbia Gateway Office Park in Columbia, Maryland. The company relocated from their original Lanham, MD office to the Columbia, MD new corporate headquarters in May 2009. However, by February, 2011, the need to drive down operating costs forced Integral Systems to return to the Lanham facility and sublease the majority of their former headquarters facility.

On July 27, 2011, Integral Systems merged with Kratos Defense & Security Solutions. At the time of the acquisition, the 600 to 700 Integral Systems employees were expected to join the 4,000 employees of Kratos Defense and Security Solutions.
