Insights
Honeywell's new AI building platform addresses critical industry challenges with confirmed adoption by major organizations.
Honeywell's newly launched Connected Solutions platform represents a significant advancement in building management technology by consolidating critical building systems into a single integrated interface. The platform's AI-enabled installation process, completing in hours rather than days or weeks, directly addresses one of the industry's persistent challenges – implementation time and cost.
The technology tackles four key pain points in the building management sector: cybersecurity (through advanced encryption), operational costs (via remote monitoring and diagnostics), maintenance challenges (using predictive analytics), and sustainability requirements (with energy management solutions). These features align perfectly with current market demands as building operators face increasing pressure from aging infrastructure, labor shortages, and decarbonization mandates.
What's particularly notable is that this isn't merely a product announcement – Honeywell has secured early implementation with Verizon and Vanderbilt University, demonstrating real-world application. Vanderbilt's deployment across nearly 10
The platform's foundation on Honeywell Forge indicates an evolution of their existing technology stack rather than an entirely new development, suggesting efficient R&D resource allocation. By integrating AI capabilities for predictive maintenance and system optimization, Honeywell is positioning this solution at the intersection of two significant technological trends: smart building management and artificial intelligence applications in traditional industries.
Verizon and Vanderbilt University are early adopters of Honeywell's technology
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 cyberthreats,
- 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
"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."
