Systems integrator Adesta is making a bigger impression
integration needs with one company partner. We feel we’ve made the right choice.”
Note that Adesta has also been awarded a $1.4 million contract from the Port of Houston Authority for the design, installation, and integration of an intelligent video security surveillance system (IVSS). Adesta’s solution builds on the port’s existing security infrastructure to enhance the port-wide video management system, adding intelligent video capability and integration with the port’s existing access control systems. The expected project completion date is February 2008.
* The Sheriff Department of Jefferson County, Texas, awarded Adesta a $958,000 contract to install a water-side video surveillance system along the Sabine/Neches rivers. The system manages and monitors surveillance video at strategic locations along the waterway between Beaumont and Port Arthur, Texas. The company is responsible for engineering, installing, testing, and turning up a fully integrated wireless video surveillance network. The project includes a network of cameras from remote locations along the rivers, with video management from the United States Coast Guard (USCG) Vessel Tracking Station and the Jefferson County Sheriff’s Department. Construction began in June 2007 and will likely be completed in early 2008. Note that this project involves a unique public-private partnership because several organizations own property along the rivers and there is a need to secure their cooperation for an effective installation and integration of the surveillance system. “Jefferson County is pleased to be working with Adesta as our partner of choice on this very important security enhancement project,” said Chief Walter Billingsley of the Jefferson County Sheriff’s Department. “We believe this is an important step towards securing and protecting our community.”
Adesta has also procured and installed electronic security enhancements at several facilities for the Metro Wastewater Reclamation District of Denver. The Metro Wastewater Reclamation District is the wastewater treatment authority for most of metropolitan Denver, treating about 130 million gallons of wastewater a day and discharging the treated water into the South Platte River where it makes up about 85 percent of the river for nine months of the year.
* The city of Colorado Springs, Colorado, has awarded Adesta a $2.86 million contract to construct a fiber optic infrastructure to sixty-one district schools and school facilities in the city. The district’s project deploys new, dedicated, fiber optic laterals which are connected directly to the city’s fiber optic ring networks. These connections provide the district with dedicated, high-capacity connections to all their facilities, using existing, city-owned backbone
