Honeywell rolls out upgraded safety software to boost real-time industrial risk monitoring

The upgraded software expands monitoring of portable gas detection fleets, adding deeper historical data analysis, advanced dashboards, and forecasting tools

Honeywell has launched enhanced capabilities for its Safety Suite 2.0 platform, strengthening real-time visibility and control over worker safety across high-risk industries including refineries, chemical plants, utilities, and emergency response operations.
 
The upgraded software expands monitoring of portable gas detection fleets, adding deeper historical data analysis, advanced dashboards, and forecasting tools. The goal: help safety leaders move from reactive incident response to predictive risk management while improving compliance tracking and device oversight across sites.
 
“Safety Suite empowers leaders to detect potential hazards early, prioritize corrective actions and continuously improve safety performance to protect workers on the job,” said Armando Pazos, president, Honeywell Industrial Measurement and Control. 
 
“When operations teams can connect insights from historical trends and real-time metrics, organizations can shift from reactive responses to a proactive, safety-first approach. This helps to reduce risk, enable faster, more informed decision-making and strengthen a culture where worker safety is embedded in every process, asset and outcome.”
 
The platform now features customizable dashboards that bring together exposure data, compliance status, and fleet health into streamlined visual formats, making audits and performance tracking faster and more efficient.
 
Real-time alerts push critical notifications to workers, including reminders for device bump tests and safety events, helping reduce operational disruptions and downtime. Live readings from gas detectors give supervisors immediate visibility into conditions across all sites.
 
The system also introduces guided and automated workflows for onboarding, assigning, calibrating, and returning devices—improving tracking and accountability whether equipment is assigned to individuals, teams, or rotating shifts.
 
Honeywell highlights that connected safety systems are increasingly essential not only for protecting workers but also for preventing costly infrastructure incidents. Gas leak responses alone can cost fire departments more than $500 million annually.
 
With Safety Suite 2.0, managers can also analyze historical alarm events and long-term trends from a centralized platform, supporting incident investigations and improving training programs. The enhanced ecosystem is designed to improve coverage, efficiency, and decision-making across industrial operations.
 
Honeywell said the upgrade strengthens its broader industrial software portfolio, which is built on its Honeywell Accelerator operating system and Honeywell Forge platform, aimed at improving safety, productivity, and operational resilience across industries worldwide.
