Seattle-based naval architecture and marine engineering
consultancy Glosten has acquired Noise Control Engineering, a
Massachusetts-based acoustical engineering firm that specializes in noise and
vibration control for marine, industrial and commercial environments.
Glosten revealed the acquisition Sept. 1.
Noise Control Engineering, which will continue to operate
under that name, is now a wholly owned subsidiary of Glosten and will maintain
its current offices in Billerica, Massachusetts and Mobile, Alabama and
continue to serve its clientele as an independent group within the Glosten
organization.
“For over 55 years, Glosten has grown carefully,
responding to the unique and challenging needs of our clients,” Glosten President Jay Edgar said. “Joining
with NCE is an exciting next step. We are adding resources and capabilities
that will allow us each to offer a more comprehensive scope of services while
maintaining our individual identities and industry focus.”
NCE President and founder Ray Fischer said this
transition ensures the success of NCE over the long term.
“We have collaborated with Glosten for over 20 years
on many fascinating projects,” he said. “It’s great to join an organization that shares our
client-focused culture.”
