90METER INC

90METER INC specializes in the development and licensing of secure middleware and hardware-software integration solutions, with a focus on smart card management systems for defense applications. Their core capability centers on delivering enterprise-grade identity and access management platforms, particularly through proprietary Smart Card Manager (SCM) technology that enables secure authentication, credential provisioning, and cryptographic key management in constrained environments. The company’s technical expertise includes embedded systems integration, PKI-enabled middleware, and secure communication protocols aligned with DoD standards for personnel identification and digital authorization. Their solutions are designed for high-assurance environments requiring tamper-resistant hardware-software synergy, distinguishing them through tightly coupled licensing models that bundle both software licenses and hardened hardware components into unified, deployable systems. The contractor has demonstrated direct engagement with the Department of Defense, delivering mission-critical identity management infrastructure that supports secure access to sensitive systems and facilities. Their work aligns with DoD initiatives around Common Access Card (CAC) compatibility, multi-factor authentication, and secure enclave computing, indicating a focused relationship built on compliance with DoD 8520.02 and NIST SP 800-53 controls. 90METER INC operates primarily within the Software Publishers NAICS 511210 category, reflecting its role as a vendor of proprietary, licensable software systems rather than custom development services. This positions them as a niche provider of specialized, repeatable security platforms tailored for government identity and access control use cases, particularly in defense and intelligence domains. As a small business structured as a 2L entity based in Newport Beach, California, 90METER INC maintains a lean, focused operational footprint with no federal certifications on record. Their market presence is defined by technical specialization rather than broad-scale contracting, serving high-integrity government systems through tightly scoped, high-value software and hardware integrations.
