Verizon and Honeywell have announced a strategic collaboration to bring a seamless technology experience to retail and logistics companies through the launch of a bundled offering.

Combining Honeywell’s leading hardware, software and services with Verizon’s high-speed 5G connectivity will enable businesses to streamline the retail lifecycle with simplified procurement, contracting and future device and data plan expansions. 

“Our collaboration with Verizon will help retailers and logistics companies maintain an effective resiliency plan for unexpected disruptions,” said Honeywell Productivity Solutions and Services president, David Barker.

“By bundling services, we’re reducing the number of parties involved and steps it takes to purchase a full solution that often requires several key technologies. This enables businesses to stay up to date with important technology refreshes and avoiding difficult CAPEX budgeting cycles. 

“Companies are looking at ways to reduce the time and effort it takes to make key technology purchases so they can get their operations up and running quickly,” Verizon Business global enterprise and public sector CRO, Massimo Peselli (above) said.

“By offering a fully managed services solution at a single monthly price with Honeywell, our retail and logistics customers can focus more on their return on investment and driving business outcomes.”

The Honeywell-Verizon bundled solution will provide a range of benefits, including simplified procurement through a single point of contact, enhanced high speed connectivity throughVerizon’s 5G network, and device management and scalability. It also creates increased business resiliency for retailers and logistics companies by enabling streamlined workflows, increased productivity and reduced downtime.
