Compressed air supplier adds expertise to Honeywell’s growing Internet of Things ecosystem
HOUSTON, -- Honeywell and Sparks Dynamics today announced they will collaborate to help industrial customers leverage the power of the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) and make their operations safer, more efficient and more reliable.
“A robust ecosystem is one of three key steps to an effective IIoT,” said Andrew Hird, vice president and general manager of Honeywell Process Solutions’ Digital Transformation business. “First, you need to have secure access to the vast amount of operational data being collected; second you need the capability to accurately and quickly analyze that data; and finally, you must have the domain knowledge to understand how to deploy information to benefit the operation. Spark Dynamic’s elite domain expertise in the world of compressed air solutions makes the Honeywell-Sparks Dynamics IIoT ecosystem unique for our customers.”
Honeywell’s capabilities in data consolidation, cyber and software development combined with Sparks Dynamics’ deep domain knowledge will allow the expansion of a robust IIoT ecosystem that will help customers solve previously unsolvable problems.
“Sparks Dynamics will work with Honeywell to provide compressed air management, systems engineering, energy analysis and assistance with analytics development,” said Mac Mottley, Sparks Dynamics’ chief executive officer. “An important part of this will be working with Honeywell to introduce a joint compressed air solution to the mid- to large-sized industrial plants.”
Ultimately, Honeywell and its collaborators, including Sparks Dynamics, will leverage the IIoT to help customers minimize unplanned shutdowns, maximize output, minimize safety risk and optimize supply chain strategies.
