Honeywell Security Group (HSG) has announced that it will merge with Honeywell Fire Safety (HFS) businesses to form the new Honeywell Security and Fire (HSF) business unit within Honeywell Automation & Control Solutions (ACS). The combination of the two businesses makes sense for Honeywell and for our customers as it offers a broader and more robust portfolio of best-in-class products and end-to-end connected solutions for Homes and Buildings.
The new business will be led by David Paja as president of HSF, reporting to Alex Ismail, president and CEO of ACS. Paja, who joined Honeywell in 2003, most recently served as president of Honeywell Security Group. He also served as vice president and general manager for Honeywell Transportation Systems in China and India and has extensive global business, operational and marketing expertise.
According to the company, this is an exciting opportunity for Honeywell and its customers as the creation of this new business unit underscores Honeywell's continued commitment to strengthen the depth of its technology and product offerings. These businesses are a natural fit because of their shared long legacy of life-saving innovation that has made them leaders in the industry.
Honeywell sales leaders within the legacy HSG and HFS businesses will remain in place to ensure continued focus on our customers’ success. The company remains committed to supporting its customers with the same level of reliable and quality products, service and delivery throughout this process, with a focus on transparency and open communication.
