Project Background - Airport Infrastructure Upgrades
In 2023, United Airlines and the Houston Airport System (HAS) announced a landmark transformation project of the George Bush Intercontinental Airport.
It aimed to reinvent and expand Terminal B to enhance passengers' air travel experience and better manage their future needs.
This expansion spanned across a vast area of the airport. It encompassed various upgrades, all of which required security to prevent the risk of construction theft and other crime that it could be presented with.
Within this, any security method they utilized needed to be completely power autonomous and able to function independently without the need for the internet or power.
The Challenge - Jobsite Security Requirements
Construction jobsites, especially those that span large spaces, are common targets for criminals. Security can be challenging to manage, and they often hold high-value materials, equipment, and machinery.
With the rise in metal theft, construction job sites such as this project at George Bush Intercontinental Airport face increased risks of crime, which could cause delays and heavy financial implications for the contractor if committed.
With such a transformation project, managing access control in this type of public location is impossible without the support of additional security measures.
As the project was taking place at an airport, other terminals would still be in operation with thousands of individuals still utilising them. The security measures used needed to provide a criminal deterrent factor and work independently of the rest of the airport.
The Solution - Solar Surveillance Trailers
WCCTV supported JE Dunn in securing their jobsite by deploying our Solar Surveillance Trailers to protect high-risk areas whilst remaining completely power autonomous as requested.
Powered by solar energy and using cellular connectivity, this security solution requires no power or internet input from the airport without compromising quality.
Fitted with infrared PTZ cameras that have zoom-in capabilities and can offer a near 360-degree view, they work perfectly to cover vast spaces, including Terminal B, where various entry points could be targeted.
In addition to their power autonomy, their mobile design allows the contractors to quickly relocate them as the project develops into various locations. This keeps the security solution cost-effective and adaptable to construction projects like this.
Our Solar Trailers provide live monitoring with visual deterrent features such as 20-ft height, live voice-down audio message backup, and sirens to prevent unauthorized access and material theft.
The Result
Through the use of our Surveillance Trailers, we supported George Bush Intercontinental Airport with their transformation project, protecting materials, preventing any unauthorized access, and deterring criminal activity.
By utilizing just 4 of our Solar Trailers, we effectively helped their project to continue as needed and reduce the impact in which construction crime can have on large projects like this.
With multiple entry points to monitor, our products are designed with the specific needs of construction jobsite projects in mind and we are proud to support them along their exciting journey to improve Terminal B and the overall experience for travellers in their airport.
