Honeywell and IDEMIA announce strategic partnership

Honeywell and IDEMIA announced a strategic alliance to create an intelligent building ecosystem.

The Honeywell and IDEMIA alliance is intended to design solutions that will allow occupants have contactless engagement with a building – from vehicle recognition at the car park and automatic elevator calls to biometric-based access and personalized conference room settings.

“By working with IDEMIA we will create an intelligent building ecosystem that better addresses our customers’ key challenges and drives their desired outcomes,” said Manish Sharma, vice-president, chief technology and chief product officer for Honeywell Building Technologies, in a prepared statement. “Whether it’s a commercial office building, a hospital or an airport, we have the ability to change the way people experience and interact with buildings for the better.”

IDEMIA’s AI-based products and solutions integrate with Honeywell security and building management systems. Honeywell’s systems include Pro-Watch Integrated Security Suite, MAXPRO Cloud and Enterprise Buildings Integrator.

The integrated offerings will allow building operators to respond rapidly and effectively to alarms or incidents by providing an incident workflow package that allows Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) to be configured, reducing compliance exceptions, security risks and response times.
