SOUNDNINE INC

SOUNDNINE INC specializes in the design and integration of precision sensing and real-time monitoring systems for environmental and marine applications, with a demonstrated focus on inductive hypoxia detection technology. The company develops proprietary measuring and controlling devices that deliver continuous, in-situ data acquisition for aquatic ecosystem monitoring, particularly in support of NOAA’s habitat conservation initiatives. Their technical expertise lies in embedded sensor systems, low-power telemetry, and real-time data conditioning hardware tailored for harsh marine environments, enabling precise oxygen level tracking critical to fishery health and ecosystem management. Differentiators include custom-engineered instrumentation for field-deployable, long-duration operation and seamless integration with federal monitoring platforms. SOUNDNINE INC has established a targeted relationship with the Department of Commerce, specifically supporting the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration’s National Marine Fisheries Service and its Office of Habitat Conservation. The contractor delivers specialized equipment for in-water monitoring at regional offices such as the Chesapeake Bay facility, indicating a focus on mission-critical, non-commodity instrumentation for scientific and conservation operations. This singular award pattern suggests a niche, solution-driven engagement model rather than broad-scale procurement participation. The contractor’s primary NAICS code, 334519 — Other Measuring and Controlling Device Manufacturing — reflects a specialization in custom analytical and environmental instrumentation rather than mass-produced sensors. Their market positioning is that of a precision engineering firm serving federal scientific agencies requiring bespoke, high-reliability monitoring systems for ecological research and habitat assessment. SOUNDNINE INC is a small business structured as a 2L entity, headquartered in Kirkland, Washington. The company holds no federal certifications, positioning itself as a technical specialist leveraging engineering agility and domain-specific innovation rather than formal compliance programs. Its geographic presence is centered in the Pacific Northwest, aligning with regional marine science and NOAA operational hubs.
