The Impact of Digitalization
Bluewater Health upgraded their building maintenance with Honeywell Forge, moving from physical monitoring to a digitized approach with advanced infrastructure improvements.
Quote: If the building is not maintained properly, it can be…life-altering for a patient. If we had been (in a) pandemic ten years ago, I don't know how we would have controlled a lot of things the way we did…because of a partner like Honeywell. It's been priceless, really.

Quote: We see things without actually having to physically be there, and it has improved our time management.

Managing complex infrastructure in critical environments
Bluewater Health operates a complex infrastructure across two sites, requiring significant resources to maintain. Previously, their maintenance approach relied heavily on time-consuming physical monitoring, limiting their ability to proactively address issues. They needed a solution to digitize operations and improve overall efficiency.
Integrated operations and insights with Honeywell Forge
By implementing Honeywell Forge and Enterprise Building Integrator (EBI), Bluewater Health digitized their maintenance operations. This allowed their team to monitor equipment remotely and gain insights, helping improve time management. The resulting operational efficiency helps them redirect funds back into their primary focus: patient care.
