    Buildings run better when systems work together

    Enabled by the Honeywell Forge platform, Enterprise Buildings Integrator (EBI) helps you run a smarter building to more effectively protect health, enhance security and lower costs.

    An agnostic solution to total integration

    Imagine being able to manage every building system in one place, using a universal set of tools and analytics. Enterprise Buildings Integrator (EBI) makes this a reality: Monitor and operate complex facilities or campuses through an interactive map of your site.

    Integrated building operations help you optimize efficiency and responsiveness, protect health and safety, and increase the comfort and security of your facilities.

    EBI is an open, scalable solution that works with a wide range of third-party equipment and software. It reduces operational and lifecycle costs while giving you plenty of room to grow as your needs expand.

    A single view for clear, accurate decisions

    Controlling a complex set of systems in one unified view, your employees can use integrated building data to drive better decisions. Whether you manage a single building, a campus, or global operations, the ability to holistically view and manage systems makes for a clearer understanding of your buildings, adding agility and insight to decision making.

    We can integrate a range of systems including:

    • Building and energy management
    • Health and safety
    • Security and access control
    • Video surveillance

    Automated workflows mean faster responses 

    Beyond a detailed, global view of your operations, EBI automates workflows so the right people are alerted when they should be and the right procedures get triggered automatically.

    Cloud connectivity means you can manage your facilities on the go or from multiple locations. And intuitive zoomable maps give you a unified view of your facilities.

    Smart integration with a wide range of platforms

    EBI can integrate with virtually any third-party system or equipment, and is designed for native integration with:

    • Honeywell Building Manager for HVAC monitoring and control, maintenance management, lighting control, health risk monitoring, and regulatory compliance.
    • Honeywell Energy Manager to collect, analyze and act on data to reduce energy consumption, costs and carbon emissions across your facility. It also monitors, validates and optimizes energy usage to help the environment and save you money.
    • Honeywell Security Manager to protect people, assets and intellectual property through security monitoring, access control and surveillance devices, including time and attendance monitoring, visitor management, and asset and personnel tracking.
    • Honeywell LifeSafety Manager to monitor and control alarm systems for fire detection and smoke controls, as well as public address and voice announcements.
    • Honeywell Digital Video Manager, a digital CCTV surveillance solution that includes video analytics and event-based recording and viewing, using existing or new cameras connected directly to your network.

    EBI knocks down operational silos to make buildings smarter and healthier, streamline workflows, and help your business run smoothly and profitably. Let’s talk about how we can customize the right solution for you.
