WESTFIELD, Mass. - BostonChron -- DDS Acoustical Specialties, a leading provider of innovative noise control solutions across the country, proudly celebrates five years of dynamic growth and transformation. Since its founding, DDS has established itself as a trusted partner in architectural, industrial, and exterior acoustics, delivering high-performance noise control systems with unmatched customer service.

This milestone marks both a moment of reflection and transition for the DDS leadership team. Co-founder and partner Steve Soja officially retired in December 2024, concluding a celebrated career marked by dedication and industry expertise. Steve's influence was foundational to DDS's early success, and his legacy continues to guide the company's mission.

To meet the growing demands of its expanding customer base, DDS has invested in operational leadership and installation capacity.
In a major leadership expansion, DDS is also proud to announce the appointment of Dawn Marie Bauguess as Vice President of Operations and Administration. Dawn brings over 30 years of experience in the acoustical manufacturing industry, having held progressive leadership roles at Sound Seal in Agawam, MA. Her accomplishments span plant management, inventory systems, production scheduling, business system integration, and cross-departmental collaboration. With expertise in Lean Six Sigma, Sage Manufacturing, and operational restructuring, Dawn's strategic insight and dedication to team development will strengthen DDS's internal operations and enhance client delivery.
