G4S wins PhaseII Iberdrola contract

G4S has been selected to deploy Phase II of a multi-million-dollar contract with leading energy company, Iberdrola USA (IUSA), to achieve a comprehensive, multi-layered, integrated physical security solution that meets present and future NERC/CIP 5 requirements. G4S Technology led Phase I, and now focuses on upgrading video and card access control across IUSA's operating companies.

IUSA, subsidiary of parent company, Iberdrola S.A., provides renewable and thermal electricity generation, transmission and distribution, natural gas storage and distribution and renewable energy operations services to 24 U.S. states. The business units include Iberdrola USA Networks, Inc., which delivers natural gas and electricity to nearly three million customers in New England; Iberdrola Renewables, with the largest worldwide renewable asset base; and Iberdrola Energy Holdings, which serves as a top U.S. independent gas storage operator and trader.

G4S Technology will complete video implementation for remaining Phase I sites, including service of the VMS and AMAG Symmetry ACS systems for three years. They will continue to support IUSA's security initiatives to expand upon video and card access deployments across the organization's critical assets. This will include other initiatives under Iberdrola Renewables, based on IUSA's threat-based assessments and tiered security approach.

"G4S Technology has proven to be a supportive, reliable and innovative technology partner for Iberdrola USA, serving to realise our vision of intelligent, quality service to our broad customer base," said Keri Glitch, CSO for Iberdrola USA.

"G4S Technology values this expanded partnership with Iberdrola USA.  Our focus on this second contract is to meet IUSA's widespread security needs, and maintain their commitment to quality service and peace of mind for IUSA customers," said Sam Belbina, G4S Technology President. "Over the next three years, G4S Technology will deliver IUSA the most intelligent, reliable, and fully scalable security platforms to enable them to meet and exceed all government mandates, and solidify IUSA as an industry leader."
