About the company
MSI Transducers Corp., a small business manufacturer of advanced ceramic and transducer technologies based in Littleton, Massachusetts, operates as a subsidiary of Airmar Technology Corp. and competes on federal prime contracts (60% of recent awards) and as a subcontractor (40%), primarily in full-and-open naval and defense procurements with no characteristic set-aside posture across its portfolio.
MSI's core capability centers on precision acoustic transducer design, piezoceramic material innovation, and sonar component repair and manufacturing for Navy and Marine Corps platforms. The vendor's recent award footprint splits between two distinct work streams: development contracts for advanced materials and acoustic systems under research programs, and production or repair orders for specialized sonar and sensor components. Representative prime work includes an $800,000 Office of Naval Research definitive contract (April 2025, cost-plus-fixed-fee) for development of solid-state converted relaxor ferroelectrics and textured piezoceramics, with a period of performance through April 2029, aimed at cost-reduction alternatives to tape-casting processes for textured piezoceramic materials; a $986,411 Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency Phase II SBIR definitive contract (May 2023, completed September 2024) for precision ceramic stack dicing; and a $1.7 million Naval Sea Systems Command research and development definitive contract (February 2023, total small business set-aside, cost-plus-fixed-fee) with completion originally targeted for February 2026. More recently, Naval Sea Systems Command awarded two purchase orders totaling $63,442: $28,870 for Multi Function Side Aperture Sonar and Digital Gap Filler Sonar equipment repair (April 2026) and $34,572 for 30 altimeter kit units under sole-source justification as the original equipment manufacturer and sole developer (December 2025).
Customer concentration is extreme and Navy-centric. The Office of Naval Research accounts for 8 awards and $3.6 million (50% of combined potential value), while Naval Sea Systems Command holds 6 awards and $2 million. Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency contributes 4 awards and $1.2 million. These three entities represent 96% of awards by count and essentially 100% of potential value; the Army and Air Force Exchange Service carries five awards with minimal documented dollar value. MSI participates in two named parent vehicles: an Indefinite Delivery Contract (W56KGU18D0004) with 5 task orders and a single Seaport Next Generation task order. The vendor's work is predominantly classified under NAICS 541512 (Research and Development in the Physical, Engineering, and Life Sciences), with 18 of 25 awards falling into that category.
Activity has remained modest and flat — two awards in 2022, four in 2023, five in 2024, four in 2025, and two in early 2026 — generating $7.1 million in combined potential value across all awards. MSI subcontracts to Arete Associates on research and development work for transducer systems and conductivity/temperature/depth sensors (July 2026, July 2025, August 2024) and to The MITRE Corporation on sonar array design, flex circuit updates, impedance testing, and in-water acoustic testing (August 2024, November 2023). As a subsidiary, MSI operates within Airmar's broader transducer and sensor manufacturing platform but maintains independent federal contracting status and a distinct naval acoustics specialization.
