RADIATION SURVEY METER SALES BUSINESS PLAN
Â
I. Executive Summary
Company Description
RadLink Instruments—named to reflect our role as the operational link between advanced sensor manufacturers and end users—launches from Houston, Texas in 2026. We operate in the radiation detection and safety equipment sector, selling high-performance handheld survey meters and providing technical consultation. Our core products are portable radiation survey meters with calibrated accuracy, fast response times, and ruggedized housings for field use. We pair sales with a US-based warehouse and an on-site calibration laboratory to deliver rapid fulfillment, certified maintenance, and traceable calibration records that help customers meet stringent US regulatory standards. One-line: We make accurate, portable radiation detection simple and reliable for frontline teams.
We sell to safety officers, industrial maintenance teams, nuclear research labs, and environmental contractors across the United States, focusing on organizations that require certified instruments and fast service. Key activities include curated product sourcing, technical pre-sale evaluation, calibrated instrument delivery, recurring maintenance contracts, and personnel training. What sets us apart is the combination of an expert consultative sales process, same-country calibration and repair, and inventory positioned for rapid deployment. Short-term goals: complete product approvals, staff the calibration lab, and secure 25 commercial accounts by Q4 2026. Long-term goals: national dealer network, recurring service revenue of 40% gross margin, and expansion into sensor fusion solutions by 2029. One-line: We build partnerships that keep people safe and operations compliant.

Problem
Field operators, safety officers, first responders, and homeland security personnel currently lack handheld radiation detectors that combine laboratory-grade accuracy with the ruggedness and portability required for real-world field work. Existing devices force trade-offs between accuracy, durability, and compliance with OSHA and NRC standards, which leads to slower incident response, incorrect shelter or evacuation decisions, wasted lab retests, and potential regulatory violations.
Based in Houston, Texas and launching in 2026, our company will fill this gap by providing a curated portfolio of high-performance handheld instruments plus on-site technical consultation, fast fulfillment from a US warehouse, and calibration from a US-based lab—closing a clear market need for reliable, compliant, and field-ready radiation detection. One line: accurate, rugged, and compliant handheld detection for faster, safer decisions.
Â
Solution
Professionals in hospitals, industry, and security lack immediate access to reliable radiation detection and technical guidance, creating safety and compliance gaps. Our offering delivers portable, instrument-grade radiation detectors plus expert calibration and consultation so teams get immediate, on-site dose readouts, area scans, and radionuclide identification with complete calibration and regulatory documentation.
One-liner: portable, tested detectors plus calibration and expert support for on-site exposure decisions and compliance.
