Contract AwardInformation TechnologyDetected May 7, 2026

The Town of Monterey reported during the May 7, 2026 council meeting that a SCADA sensor at the water/wastewater plant has not yet been repaired and that they are waiting for Valley Automation to replace the sensors, which have already been ordered. This indicates that a vendor has been selected and hardware ordered, but installation and full restoration of the monitoring/control capability are still pending. For vendors, this confirms Valley Automation as the current SCADA provider and suggests that Monterey is actively investing in automation and controls at its utility plant.There may be follow-on opportunities around additional sensors, SCADA software upgrades, networking, cybersecurity, remote monitoring, and maintenance once this work is completed, or in future renewal and expansion cycles if performance issues arise.

Work is in progress with Valley Automation; town notes the delay between ordering and installing the sensors.

The district attached an Education Law 2-d data privacy rider and Parents' Bill of Rights to contracts involving protected data. The rider requires encryption, NIST Cybersecurity Framework alignment, subcontractor controls, and limits on PII use and disclosure. This is contract administration for any vendor handling student or teacher data, and it signals compliance-heavy follow-on work for current and future software, storage, or study vendors.

Contract Award

At its September 8, 2026 meeting, Town Council considered a recommendation to install a fiber optic broadband network with IQ Fiber (OpCo,DE) LLC. The agenda indicates the town was being asked to approve the installation, so the buying decision was already in motion rather than purely exploratory. This points to an implementation or deployment opportunity around network buildout and related services.
