Advanced Acoustic Concepts, LLC

Advanced Acoustic Concepts, LLC, headquartered in Washington, DC, is a foreign-owned, for-profit manufacturer specializing in acoustic systems and advanced technology development for defense applications. The company has maintained continuous federal contracting registration since March 2009 and serves as a prime contractor to the U.S. Navy and related defense agencies. Advanced Acoustic Concepts demonstrates established capabilities in developing and manufacturing specialized acoustic and electronic systems that support critical submarine-based weapons systems and maritime domain awareness initiatives within the defense contracting ecosystem.

The company has secured three significant prime federal contract awards totaling approximately $25.6 million since February 2025, reflecting its growing role in Navy procurement activities. In February 2025, the Naval Sea Systems Command awarded a cost-plus-fixed-fee definitive contract valued at $21.3 million for the manufacture, test, and delivery of Mark 48 sonar signal transmitters, Mark 48 warhead electronic system assemblies, and associated test sets, with work performed at Advanced Acoustic Concepts' Lemont Furnace, Pennsylvania facility and completion scheduled for November 30, 2027. In July 2025, the Naval Air Systems Command awarded a $458,495 firm fixed-price definitive contract for CASE C2P0 software and hardware update and integration activities supporting the P-8A Poseidon Multi-Mission Maritime Aircraft program, with completion required by January 30, 2026. Most recently, in September 2025, the Naval Air Warfare Center issued a $3.8 million Small Business Innovation Research Phase III delivery order structured as a cost-plus-fixed-fee arrangement with performance completion targeted for September 1, 2030. The company's sub-contracting history includes awards from major defense primes Leidos, Inc. (October 2024) and Huntington Ingalls Incorporated (June 2024), demonstrating integration within the broader defense industrial base.

Advanced Acoustic Concepts, LLC currently holds a single prime federal contract vehicle: a Basic Ordering Agreement (BOA) with the Naval Air Warfare Center established on October 30, 2024, and extending through October 29, 2029. This BOA, which carries no specified ceiling value, has been established to procure Small Business Innovation Research Phase III services focused on commercializing technologies previously developed under the SBIR program. The BOA structure enables the Naval Air Warfare Center to issue flexible task orders as needed throughout the five-year period of performance, supporting defense sector innovation initiatives. The aforementioned $3.8 million Phase III delivery order was issued against this BOA framework, demonstrating active utilization of the vehicle for Navy-sponsored research and development commercialization efforts.
