CONSERVATION METRICS, INC.

Conservation Metrics, Inc. specializes in scientific and technical consulting services focused on wildlife ecology, acoustic monitoring, and environmental data analysis for federal conservation programs. The company delivers advanced bioacoustic analysis of seabird and marine mammal recordings, designs and implements aerial survey protocols, and provides field-to-finish environmental data processing systems. Their technical expertise includes signal processing of passive acoustic data, spatial modeling of species distributions, and integration of remote sensing with ground-truthed ecological observations, enabling evidence-based management of protected areas and migratory species. A key differentiator is their ability to translate complex ecological datasets into actionable insights for resource managers, particularly in remote maritime and island ecosystems. The contractor maintains a strong, sustained relationship with the Department of the Interior, delivering science support services across its bureaus including the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service and National Park Service. Their work consistently supports marine wildlife monitoring, habitat assessment, and compliance with the Marine Mammal Protection Act and Endangered Species Act, indicating deep familiarity with DOI’s conservation priorities and reporting frameworks. Industry focus centers on environmental consulting (NAICS 541620) and other scientific and technical consulting services (541690), with complementary work in acoustic testing and wildlife organization support. This positions them as a niche provider of ecological analytics for federal land and marine conservation programs, bridging field ecology with computational biology and sensor-based monitoring technologies. Conservation Metrics, Inc. is a small business based in Santa Cruz, California, operating as a 2L entity with no federal certifications on record. Their geographic proximity to Pacific marine ecosystems enhances their field operational capacity and underscores their strategic alignment with West Coast federal conservation initiatives.
