In addition to running all aspects of the facility, you re expected to be financial managers, environmental stewards, safety experts, indoor air quality specialists, project managers and more. Honeywell Building Envelope Solutions (HBES) understands the complexity you face when managing a facility or multiple facilities. Because of competing priorities, you may not always have the time or resources to become as specialized as you d like in all facets of what you manage. We take the building envelope (the building s outer shell) off your busy radar and develop cost effective, turn-key solutions you can plug into your budget cycle. By optimizing building performance, we help prevent downtime due to unexpected leaks or maintenance issues and reduce energy consumption at the same time. Our goal is to improve efficiencies across all of your facilities and to do so safely.
