DALLAS, May 21, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- AT&T* and
Honeywell are collaborating to deliver Internet of Things (IoT)
technology to aircraft and freight solutions in countries across
the globe, in Europe, North America, Latin
America, Asia, Africa and Australia. AT&T's global connectivity and
IoT solutions combined with Honeywell's technology offerings are
helping companies make decisions and solve problems faster, improve
reliability and boost operational efficiency.
"We have enjoyed a business relationship with Honeywell for many
years. Our IoT solutions are helping them to drive digital
transformation in their transportation products," said Joe Mosele, VP – IoT Solutions, Business
Development at AT&T. "Honeywell understands the value of
connecting assets across its enterprise. Not only is Honeywell
using data insights collected from its products to improve its own
operations, but it's also giving that technology to its customers
to make informed decisions about their businesses."
AT&T's IoT solutions are connecting the following:
- Connected Freight – Scalable IoT solution tracks and
monitors critical shipments while they are in transit. Sensor tags
attached to assets, pallets or individual packages not only provide
location information, but also measure for shock and tilt,
humidity, temperature and pressure changes. Logistics providers
access a dashboard to receive status alerts and can react quickly
to incidents that occur during shipment to prevent damage and
loss.
- Connected Aircraft –The AT&T global network connects
aircraft services while on the ground. Honeywell's GoDirect™ family
provides operators, flight crews and maintenance teams with
critical information to manage their services and network. These
improve fleet management, flight safety, passenger experience,
maintenance, flight operations, aircraft turnaround time and
costs.
AT&T's Control Center with the AT&T global network helps
Honeywell better scale its aircraft and freight solutions in the
U.S. and abroad. Honeywell and its customers can manage IoT
connected assets remotely in a highly secure environment and
automate data usage to control costs.
"Our IoT collaboration with AT&T is adding value to the
transportation and logistics products we provide our customers
across the globe," said Sameer
Agrawal, general manager of IIoT Solutions for Honeywell
Safety and Productivity Solutions. "It gives logistics providers
near real-time data insights about their shipments in-transit. And
we can unleash a wide array of connected products and services for
aircraft operators."
Honeywell also utilizes AT&T services across a vast
portfolio of solutions, including mobile, wireline, managed network
services, teleconferencing, AT&T NetBond®, AT&T Consulting,
and traditional voice and data services. AT&T brings everything
together edge-to-edge – from end points to connectivity to the
cloud – wrapped in security.
Honeywell is a software-industrial company whose technologies
help everything from aircraft, cars, homes and buildings,
manufacturing plants, supply chains, and workers become more
connected to make our world smarter, safer, and more sustainable.
