Systems integrator Adesta LLC has won a $4 million contract to upgrade the security systems at the Grand Coulee Dam in Central Washington. As part of the contract with the U.S. Corps of Engineers, Adesta will install and upgrade integrated systems including video surveillance, intrusion detection, access control and communication subsystems in the largest hydroelectric facility in North America.
Adesta has previously installed and upgraded security systems for the FBI, the Salt Lake Winter Olympics Village, the California National Guard and the Smithsonian.
“Adesta has a long and significant history providing both electronic and physical security solutions for large dams and waterway infrastructure,” says Adesta President Bob Sommerfeld. “As our infrastructure security business experiences demand for its services, Adesta is actively recruiting and hiring security engineers to keep its supply of knowledgeable and experienced staff ahead of the demand.”
