Securitas Electronic Security receives top security integration award

UNIONTOWN, OHIO – Securitas Electronic Security, Inc. was recently awarded “Integrated Installation of the Year” by Security Sales & Integration at the 22nd Annual SAMMY Awards. This coveted distinction was awarded to Securitas Electronic Security (SES) for superior project design and skill based on a large-scale, complex security integration project for Wells Fargo & Company, ranked No. 27 on Fortune’s 2016 rankings of America’s largest corporations.

The award was achieved as a result of a 2016 complex integration project for Wells Fargo’s East Town campus in Minneapolis, Minn. The 17-story buildings, designed and constructed following LEED Platinum standards, span 1.1 million-square-feet. Today, 5,000 Minnesota team members from 59 Wells Fargo lines of business office out of this state-of-the-art campus. The project included intrusion, video, access, turnstiles, mantraps, visitor management and a campus-wide IP intercom – all monitored from a central command center designed by SES.

“SES is honored to receive the Integrated Installation of the Year award for our project work on the Wells Fargo East Town campus,” said Tony Byerly, President, SES. “Widely recognized for our sophisticated security implementations, SES was an ideal partner for the project and our focus on collaboration with the Wells Fargo team was instrumental in ensuring their satisfaction,” he said. “We are proud to be acknowledged by the industry for outstanding security project design and our systems integration competencies. We truly appreciate the opportunity to partner with leading companies like Wells Fargo.”
