GEI to Provide Instrumentation and Data Systems for the USACE
June 11, 2025GEI’s experts will help monitor changes in USACE’s flood control dams portfolio.
New York, NY, June 11, 2025 – The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) has selected GEI Consultants to provide instrumentation/automated data acquisition systems (ADAS) for USACE’s Enterprise Dam Safety Modification Center (DSMC). For this Indefinite Delivery Contract (IDC), GEI and its teaming partners will design and install instrumentation packages that integrate with Corps’ MIDAS and other systems to monitor changes in the Corps’ portfolio of dams.
“USACE wanted to continue adding and improving their monitoring systems for critical sites in real time,” says GEI Vice President Asher Peltz. “GEI’s experts and our data monitoring will help USACE to accurately understand risks posed to the structural integrity of their dams, to people, and to property. Our team is very excited to work closely with the DSMC and leverage our instrumentation and monitoring experience in executing this work.”
Instrumentation services, which involve integrating automated data acquisition systems (ADAS), are often needed for flood control structures like the dams and levees found in USACE’s Civil Works and Military portfolio. Many of these structures across the US receive long-term support from the DSMC.
Once installed, GEI’s monitoring equipment and software will detect various changes in and around dams, such as seepage. By gathering and analyzing the resulting data, GEI will provide
USACE with a robust understanding of the risks associated with its portfolio of dams – and how to allocate funds to where they are needed most.
USACE Dams and Levees are critical to the security of the nation by providing drinking water, flood protection to life and property, and ensuring sufficient water is available to keep commercial and other navigation moving in times of lower rainfall, ensuring goods and services get to those who need them.
