Honeywell Introduces AI-Enabled Software Solution
Honeywell unveiled Honeywell Forge Performance+ for
Aerospace, a cloud-based platform that utilizes AI and machine learning (ML) to
help commercial aerospace manufacturing and maintenance, repair & overhaul
(MRO) facilities modernize production and lower operational costs through
digitalization. This addition to the Honeywell Forge suite further supports
Honeywell’s alignment with the megatrends of advancing automation and the
future of aviation.
“During a time of increasing workplace complexity
and operating costs, operators need to be able to leverage data to inform
critical decision making and embrace automation,” said Karen Miller, general
manager, Honeywell Connected Aerospace. “As the aviation industry grapples with
issues such as aging fleets, higher maintenance costs and ongoing supply chain challenges,
Honeywell Forge Performance+ for Aerospace can help organizations achieve key
outcomes such as quicker turnarounds, increased asset utilization and decreased
maintenance times.”
Aerospace manufacturing and MRO operations face
several challenges regarding operations and workforces. Many of these
organizations need to increase operational awareness and improve asset
management, such as quickly locating assets across a site, while also lowering
operational costs. Organizations also have siloed data that cannot be
effectively utilized in managing their businesses due to complex assets,
facilities and workforces.
“Today’s aerospace companies need to improve their
operational efficiency and gain better visibility into their assets, but
disconnected and manual processes hold them back,” said Michael Rowe,
Vice President Aerospace & Defense at Frost & Sullivan, a leading
industry analyst firm. “A smaller MRO team may have more than 1,200 open
maintenance actions to tackle. Instead of focusing initially on work that seems
easiest to complete, software solutions such as Honeywell Forge Performance+
for Aerospace can enable companies to first address those tasks with the
highest impact on operations that improve productivity and decrease costly
downtime."
Honeywell Forge Performance+ for Aerospace combines
predictive maintenance, site optimization and workforce intelligence into one
solution. For more information about the features of Honeywell Forge
Performance+ for Aerospace, please visit: https://www.honeywellforge.ai/.
Looking ahead, Honeywell will also expand Honeywell
Forge Performance+ for Aerospace with the addition of FedRAMP, a
defense-compliant version of the platform that will provide services and solutions
that are tailored to the defense industry.
