Kontek Industries Working With General Contractors On Critical Infrastructure

Apr 19, 2021 8:45:00 AM / by Michael Witt

When working with critical infrastructure, general contractors need the expertise of a team that understands the nuances of critical infrastructure protection. That means understanding risk management, target hardening, and other crucial areas that may be affected throughout the project.

Kontek Industries has the experience and expertise to make that happen.

As a consultant, Kontek has worked with general contractors on projects for local and state government; the federal government; Department of Defense; religious and educational institutions; commercial entities; nuclear power reactors, and DOE sites.

What can Kontek do?

From the onset of your project, Kontek provides a dedicated team of on-staff engineers and project managers that directly support the day-to-day project development with the general contractor. Once the scope of the project and requirements are communicated, the team will filter through the material for the general contractors, identifying all physical security requirements. A complete physical security proposal will follow.

Proper guidance on identifying critical infrastructure needs is essential in ensuring the structural and physical safety of a facility or building. We provide assistance with target hardening to protect against attacks or penetration of defense protocols.

Our team helps general contractors by creating, designing, manufacturing, and implementing target hardening solutions to protect structures through deterrence, prevention and protection advise and products.

Security is priority #1

Physical security is just one of the many touchpoints of the Kontek team. Their incredibly knowledgeable sales group can consult and translate security-related requirements to the general contracting team. Each organization has unique needs. Kontek understands and delivers in the area of security manufacturing with an enriched network of security manufacturers at their disposal.  Kontek is capable of manufacturing or sourcing the full scope of physical security requirements on a project, including installation.

We provide in-house custom manufacturing flexible enough to make changes to our products and projects as the scope evolves. From specialty products for target hardening or additional security measures, the process is strategic and consistent. Our array of customized security solutions help meet any critical infrastructure needs. Our assessments help anticipate and overcome challenges for general contractors to complete work at the highest levels.

As one of the few companies in the country with a Cooperative Research and Development Agreement (CRADA) with Sandia National Laboratories. This, coupled with our extensive partnerships with organizations that have critical infrastructure needs makes us one of the best solutions on the market to assist general contractors with their projects.
