About
Founded in 1980, Industrial Controls of Oklahoma (ICO) brings over four decades of industrial electrical contracting experience to Tulsa and the surrounding region — a tenure that gives facility managers and general contractors confidence on complex, high-stakes projects. ICO operates as a fully integrated industrial electrical contractor, staffing in-house project managers, licensed engineers, and journeyman electricians capable of executing both pre-engineered and design-build scopes. That combined depth makes ICO a strong partner for power distribution upgrades, switchgear installation and replacement, panelboard and breaker work, and industrial controls projects across manufacturing plants, warehouses, distribution centers, and commercial office and institutional facilities throughout Oklahoma. ICO also maintains a dedicated custom control panel division — ICO Panelworks — which extends their capabilities into specialized automation and controls fabrication, a differentiator for industrial and process-heavy facilities that require custom electrical infrastructure beyond standard contractor offerings. Safety culture is deeply embedded at ICO: the company empowers any employee to stop work if unsafe conditions are identified, a practice that reduces liability exposure for property owners and facility managers overseeing occupied or operating facilities. Their in-house training program, ICO University, delivers ongoing technical, safety, leadership, and management development — meaning the crew arriving on your job site is continuously trained to current standards. For facility managers managing industrial or commercial properties in the Tulsa metro, ICO's combination of engineering staff, long-standing market presence since 1980, and custom controls capability positions them as a go-to resource for both ground-up electrical construction and complex retrofit or upgrade projects where design-build flexibility is essential.
