The collaboration merges Honeywell’s operational technology (OT) expertise with TCS’s IT and cloud modernization capabilities
Tata Consultancy Services (TCS) and Honeywell have announced a strategic partnership to transform building and industrial operations by integrating AI-driven autonomous systems.
By integrating TCS’ IT modernization, cloud, and consulting with Honeywell’s deep experience in OT (Operational Technology) automation, control systems and AI-powered data analytics, the collaboration aims to unlock real-time intelligence, improve operational efficiencies, and help deliver measurable business outcomes for customers.
Under the new initiative, to support the flow of OT data into customers’ IT systems, TCS will use its IT and consultancy capabilities and will work with Honeywell to create a unified digital foundation for real-time visibility, predictive intelligence and autonomous process control. Honeywell will bring the power of Honeywell Forge, an IoT platform delivering AI-powered analytics and dashboards for intelligent, efficient and more secure operations including its Honeywell Forge for Industrials and Buildings suites.
This will help building and industrial operators to optimize processes and deploy AI‑powered autonomous operations that can perceive, analyse, act and learn, helping customers be nimble and more informed to make faster decisions. By combining TCS’ IT, cloud and consulting capabilities with Honeywell’s deep expertise in OT automation, control systems and AI-driven analytics, customers can seamlessly bring their OT and IT environments together into a single, integrated infrastructure.
Anupam Singhal, President - Manufacturing, TCS, said: “Our partnership with Honeywell is centred on helping enterprises unlock the benefits of autonomous workflows and redefine autonomy at scale. By combining the deep industry expertise of both Honeywell and TCS with our strong digital and AI capabilities, we are enabling organizations to run more connected, efficient, and sustainable operations. This collaboration reflects our shared commitment to long‑term value creation and helping customers make more intelligent decisions as they become truly future‑ready.”
Ashish Modi, President, Honeywell India & Asia Pacific, said: “Our customers run incredibly complex operations. Historically, OT and IT have been run as separate domains, but with new capabilities in 5G connectivity, cloud computing and AI, we can now accelerate the OT/IT convergence to improve operations and data analysis through one cohesive system. This is anticipated to make it easier for our building and industrial customers to run their operations with greater safety, efficiency and agility and reveal new actionable insights on the performance of their infrastructure.”
