Honeywell Software to Help Enforce Social Distancing to Protect Mobile Workers on the Job

June 22, 2020
SupplyChainBrain

Honeywell announced several new software solutions designed to help companies enforce COVID-19 site health and safety procedures for highly mobile workers in the warehousing, logistics, health care and retail fields. 

The features, offered through the Honeywell Operational Intelligence asset management platform for the workplace, monitor on-site social distancing compliance, help enforce customizable device cleaning procedures and deploy software to digitally trace who has handled each device. These features provide employees and managers with real-time data to respond critical factors for businesses re-opening under modified conditions due to rapidly evolving health and safety guidelines. Honeywell is currently making this expanded functionality available to Operational Intelligence customers, and Honeywell device users can rapidly deploy these features on the platform.  

“Companies are at risk of losing tens of millions of dollars or more from reductions in productivity due to potential illness and spread of disease,” said Kevin Dehoff, president of Honeywell’s Productivity Products business. “Mobile devices are a critical tool for business operations, and our enhanced software solutions are designed to help companies respond in this ever-changing environment. We are working with customers globally to deploy these solutions to their workforce.”  

This expanded functionality gives employees the data they need to act quickly on health and safety issues. The features include: 

  • Social Distancing Proximity Detection allows organizations to prioritize and monitor social distancing practices. 
  • Check Out/In and Device Cleaning Management establishes processes to check devices out and in during a worker’s shift, giving employers device tracing data and alerting workers on when to clean workplace assets. 
  • Remote Control and Remote Wipe give IT administrators the availability to quickly take control of a device in any location to investigate and fix issues remotely and digitally wipe devices to original factory settings.
  • Customer Counter device uses shared, real-time data for employees at multiple entrances of a store to remain in-sync and count as customers enter and exit. 

These new features, combined with communications tools like Honeywell Smart Talk, provide constant communication for device-enabled employees practicing social distancing.
