From Honeywell to Brady; What Is Changing and What Is Not
What the transition means for customers and how SUMMIT can help
Honeywell's Productivity Solutions and Services business is now officially part of Brady. It is an important change, but it does not mean customers are leaving behind the technology, expertise or product portfolio they rely on.
Instead, Honeywell's established productivity technology is joining Brady's experience in identification, safety and printing to create a broader, more connected offering.
A New Chapter for Honeywell Productivity Solutions
Brady completed its acquisition of Honeywell's Productivity Solutions and Services business on Aug. 3, 2026. The business now operates within Brady as Intelligent Productivity Solutions.
The transition brings together Honeywell PSS capabilities in mobile computing, barcode scanning, RFID, printing and workflow software with Brady's established identification, safety and printing portfolio. The result is a more comprehensive set of tools for improving productivity and operational performance.
What Is Changing A More Focused Direction
The name and ownership are changing. The business is also gaining a more focused position within Brady's industrial technology strategy.
Brady is bringing data capture, enterprise mobility and workflow technology together with identification, printing and safety solutions. This creates new opportunities to connect each stage of an operation, from capturing information and identifying assets to tracking inventory and improving workflows.
For customers, the larger story is not simply a new name. It is the development of a more integrated technology portfolio for warehouses, distribution centers, manufacturing facilities and other demanding environments.
What Is Not Changing The Technology You Trust
The Honeywell DNA behind these solutions is not disappearing.
The mobile computers, barcode scanners, printers, RFID technology and workflow solutions customers have built into their operations remain central to the portfolio. The knowledge and experience developed through years of solving frontline productivity challenges continue into this next chapter.
Organizations can continue building around familiar technologies while preparing for new capabilities under Brady.
The Portfolio Remains Strong
The transition brings complementary technologies together under one organization.
Honeywell PSS adds strength in mobile computing, data capture, RFID and workflow software. Brady contributes deep experience in identification, specialty materials, printing and workplace safety. Together, these capabilities can support a more complete operational workflow.
That could include capturing a barcode with a handheld scanner, updating information through a mobile computer, printing an identification label and using software to improve accuracy and visibility across the process.
Continued Support for Existing Customers
Customers should not have to navigate this transition alone.
Existing technology investments still need to perform. Devices still need to be selected, configured, deployed and supported based on the realities of each operation. Organizations may also need help understanding new product branding, planning device refreshes or evaluating how the combined portfolio fits their long-term strategy.
That is where working with an experienced technology partner becomes especially important.
What the Transition Means for Your Business
There is no need to rethink a working technology strategy simply because the name is changing.
Instead, this is a good time to review your current environment and ask practical questions:
-
Are your existing devices still meeting operational demands?
-
Are any models approaching the end of their useful life?
-
Could updated scanning, mobility, printing or RFID technology improve productivity?
-
Are there disconnected processes that could benefit from a more integrated workflow?
-
What should your team expect as product names and branding transition?
The answers will depend on your equipment, applications and business goals. A planned review can help you move forward without unnecessary disruption.
