Company Ranked Fifth from More than 6,000
Green Bay, Wis. (April 14, 2026) – BAYCOM, a mission-critical communication and security solutions company serving manufacturers, construction companies, utilities, hotels, schools, universities, healthcare institutions and public safety agencies, has been named a 2025 Motorola Solutions Empower Circle winner. The award is the highest level of recognition for Motorola Solutions’ channel of independent distributors and resellers and BAYCOM ranked fifth in its category.
BAYCOM is a 100% employee-owned ESOP company that has grown significantly – adding nearly 3,000 new customers in the past five years.
“This award is a testament to our employees and their hard work and dedication,” said Katie Miner, president of BAYCOM. “It also underscores the value that employee ownership creates. An ESOP company fosters a committed and engaged workforce where employees view their contributions as vital and impactful to the overall success of the business and as a pathway to achieve their own American dream.”
From a global network of more than 6,000 professional and commercial radio (PCR) channel partners, BAYCOM was selected for outperforming key benchmarks within its peer group.
“The Empower Circle award recognizes partners who consistently exceed expectations in supporting customers’ mission-critical needs,” said Scott Adler, corporate vice president of Global PCR Sales at Motorola Solutions. “These partners have earned their standing as trusted advisors through a rigorous commitment to technical expertise and implementing innovative technology that helps businesses and communities become safer and more resilient.”
For 70 years, BAYCOM has been working with commercial clients to provide Motorola two-way radios, evidence capture, license plate recognition and the entire Motorola safety ecosystems that integrate video security, access control, video management, AI and analytics and smart sensors.
In addition, BAYCOM has a dedicated Lifeline Technology Center (LTC) and Systems Acceptance Lab (SAL) in Madison, Wis. The LTC is a live operational environment where integrated voice, video and data systems are put to the test. Customers share their pressing safety or communication challenges, and BAYCOM simulates real-world scenarios to demonstrate how these technologies work together to detect, analyze, communicate and respond. The SAL is a dedicated environment for hands-on, pre-deployment testing to validate, fine-tune and approve custom-configured systems before they go live.
“For decades, Motorola has been one of our trusted partners, providing reliable job site communications that enhance our customers’ safety, productivity and workplace efficiency,” said Miner. “Our customers count on us to deliver the best technology tools to meet their unique needs and Motorola helps us accomplish that.”
