The original Emacs Ada mode is a "built-in package"; it is included in the installation tarball.
The latest version is a "GNU ELPA package"; it can be installed in any Emacs version >= 25.0.
To install, execute M-x list-packages, search for "ada-mode", type 'i' for Install, 'x' for execute. Wait for Emacs to contact the ELPA server and install the package. Then restart Emacs (to ensure everything got done correctly).

What do you mean by "the normal update procedure"? If that means 'list-packages' as I said above, then something (presumably your site administrator) has redirected the default package archive; `package-archives' must include ("gnu" . "https://elpa.gnu.org/packages/"). In that case, ask the site admin to include ada-mode in the local archive.
If that fails, you'll have to install from source. The simplest approach to that is to check out the git worktree for elpa.
