Ardent Mills Wichita, KS Project

Interstates recently assisted Ardent Mills with an electrical upgrade at their grain receiving and storage terminal in Wichita, KS. Improving the electrical infrastructure would increase the reliability of Ardent Mills’ operations while providing a safer place for employees to work. Interstates provided core engineering, automation, and electrical construction solutions, which included ensuring Phase 1 of this electrical upgrade project set a strong foundation for future phases.

Key Scope Component

• Interstates replaced one grain elevator’s feeder and added a new feeder to service two additional elevators.
• Interstates added a new electric room and selected a location that would allow Ardent Mills to safely expand their storage capabilities down the road.
• With the primary goal of this project to improve the grain terminal’s electrical infrastructure, Interstates utilized non-electrical expertise in project budgeting, construction management, and subcontracting with civil construction and mechanical professionals to construct a new building and an access road.
