HONNEYWELL UNVEILS AI- POWERED BUILDING MANAGEMENT SOLUTION
Verizon and Vanderbilt
University are early adopters of Honeywell's technology
Mumbai, June 16,
2025 – Honeywell (NASDAQ: HON)
today announced the launch of Honeywell Connected Solutions, an AI-powered
platform that integrates critical building software and technologies into
a single interface to help enable more efficient operations. The platform's
early adopters – Verizon Communications Inc. and Vanderbilt
University – have already begun using the solution in their
buildings.
With Connected Solutions, which is
built on Honeywell Forge, building operators can manage Honeywell software,
systems and devices through one integrated interface. When a building or campus
is fully connected, users gain comprehensive data and real-time visibility into
how critical systems are operating alongside actionable insights on how to
troubleshoot challenges that may arise.
Users, which can include facility
managers, multi-site operators and integrators, can connect to the platform
quickly with an AI-enabled installation process that is completed in hours,
dramatically reducing labor time, costs and disruption, compared to traditional
building management systems.
The solution also
addresses the key issues facing buildings today through capabilities including:
- Advanced
encryption to help safeguard against cyber threats,
- Remote
monitoring and diagnostics that help to reduce labor time and cost,
- Predictive
maintenance prompts to spot and address issues before they escalate
and
- Energy-management
solutions supporting decarbonization efforts
"From aging buildings and
rising downtime costs to skilled labor shortages and growing cyber guidelines,
building owners and operators face a complex landscape of global trends that
are constantly making operations more complex and costly. To address this,
Honeywell's Connected Solutions allows building managers to link critical
building software, technologies and devices together to streamline management
and compliance and help protect uptime," said Billal Hammoud, president
and chief executive officer of Honeywell's Building Automation segment.
After integrating Honeywell's
Connected Solutions into some of its global footprint, Verizon is using the
platform to help predict critical building and system issues before they become
serious and costly.
Vanderbilt University is also using
Connected Solutions across its campus, with nearly 10% of its buildings already
adopting the technology. The university aims to enhance building system
efficiency, reduce energy consumption and optimize the user experience,
particularly in older facilities.
"Honeywell's Connected
Solutions is an innovative platform offering the tools to use real-time data
and AI-driven insights to help us optimize our buildings," said Alex
Kohnen, chief facilities officer, Vanderbilt University. "We look forward
to creating a better ecosystem for our students, faculty and staff."
