霍尼韦尔联合英伟达、戴尔推出建筑工业AI平台Forge Cognition，未披露任何收入与定价

Honeywell International ( HON ) on Wednesday introduced Forge Cognition, an artificial intelligence platform developed with technology from Nvidia ( NVDA ) and Dell Technologies ( DELL ) to help automate operations at commercial buildings, campuses and industrial facilities. The platform combines AI agents with real-time digital twins, which are virtual representations of physical systems, to monitor equipment, identify potential problems and simulate operational changes. Forge Cognition connects to existing building-management systems and can perform tasks such as prioritizing alarms, predicting heating and cooling equipment failures and identifying opportunities to reduce energy consumption. For investors, the launch represents an effort by Honeywell ( HON ) to expand its software and AI offerings across an installed base of more than 300,000 sites, potentially creating additional revenue opportunities from existing customers. The partnership also highlights growing demand for AI infrastructure and applications beyond data centers, as companies seek to apply the technology to physical assets and industrial operations. Honeywell did not disclose pricing, expected revenue contributions or financial targets for Forge Cognition. The platform incorporates Nvidia's ( NVDA ) Nemotron AI models to interpret operational data, Omniverse simulation technology to model building performance and Cosmos models to analyze visual information. Dell provides computing, storage and other infrastructure through its Dell AI Factory with NVIDIA, including PowerEdge servers and data-management systems. Honeywell said customers can choose manual, semi-autonomous or autonomous operation, with human operators retaining the ability to override the system. Potential energy savings Honeywell is piloting Forge Cognition at Nvidia's Voyager campus in Santa Clara, California, along with the Fairmont Hotel in Dubai, NEX Mall in Singapore, Vanderbilt University and Honeywell facilities in Bangalore, India, and Richardson, Texas. At Voyager, the company reported an average reduction of up to 90% in unnecessary alerts and identified potential energy and utility consumption reductions of up to 10%. The pilot also maintained an occupant comfort score above 95%, based on temperature, humidity and carbon dioxide measurements. Those results suggest potential operational benefits, although Honeywell did not disclose the duration of the Voyager pilot, the costs of implementing the platform or whether the projected energy savings have been realized. The company also did not provide comparable performance results from the other pilot locations, leaving questions about how consistently the technology can deliver benefits across different facilities. Honeywell said customers can begin evaluating and planning Forge Cognition deployments immediately, with additional capabilities expected over time. The company has not announced a timetable for broader commercial adoption or quantified the potential financial impact of the platform.
