Renewable Power Manufacturer

A producer of electricity from bio-mass turned to ACG’s Protect and Connect solutions for its large-scale power plant construction projects.

From a Protect perspective, ACG’s extensive remote monitoring solutions were deployed to support two sets of priorities. First, to protect millions of dollars’ worth of onsite inventory and to create a 24/7 visible record to mitigate liability in case of fraudulent claims and/or accident or injury among the 120 contractors erecting the plants. Second, to provide financial backers a first-hand visual of site progress as a factor in deciding whether to grant future loans for the project. An additional benefit was cost savings realized by replacing third-party guard services with ACG’s automated security systems.

Connect solutions also were deployed in the form of network infrastructure and high-speed connectivity for the 15 to 20 national and international contracting companies engaged on the project as they transfer and exchange large-file engineering documents.

Plans call for the renewable power manufacturer to leverage its investment in the ACG Protect and Connect solutions by migrating the cameras and security tools into the operating plants.
