As part of the contract, Honeywell will be able to install utility monitoring and building control technology -- such as heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC), fire alarm and life safety, and security systems -- at any federal facility, nationally or abroad. Honeywell was one of eight companies to receive a contract from the U.S. Army Engineering and Support Center in Huntsville, Ala., for this new program, which could collectively involve as much as $650 million in projects over the next three years.
"The Army Corps of Engineers is focused on continuous process improvement and this program creates a standard procurement vehicle for boosting safety and comfort for employees and citizens, and reducing operating costs at facilities," said Paul Orzeske, president of Honeywell Building Solutions. "We have the technology, experience and footprint to help meet these goals."
The contract builds on decades of work for the federal government. Honeywell provides nearly $50 million of infrastructure improvements for government organizations annually, and has completed projects for the Department of Homeland Security, Department of Energy (DOE) and all four branches of the military, among other agencies.
Honeywell also recently received similar contracts from the DOE and Army Corps of Engineers for programs that could provide nearly $6 billion of energy-efficiency, renewable energy and water-conservation improvements in government buildings combined.
