SNOQUALMIE, Wash. — Snoqualmie Valley School District (SVSD) has teamed with Honeywell to “modernize and integrate its building systems across 13 campuses into a single, cutting-edge automated control center,” according to a joint announcement.
The new partnership “will help enhance safety, improve responsiveness and increase operational efficiency for the district,” the announcement says.
As one of Washington State’s largest and most geographically diverse school districts, the Snoqualmie Valley School District “will leverage the Honeywell Enterprise Building Integrator (EBI) platform to manage the campuses in its district more efficiently through a single connected, intelligent dashboard,” according to the announcement.
Across the district, the EBI platform “will unite oversight of elements such as access control, video surveillance, HVAC management, fire life safety monitoring and building scheduling,” the announcement says.
“The ability to seamlessly integrate these inputs in one platform will empower SVSD to act quickly and decisively in any situation, enabling heightened situational awareness and round-the-clock monitoring to reinforce the well-being of the more than 7,500 students and faculty throughout its school communities,” the announcement says.
“Our long-standing partnership with Honeywell is instrumental in creating secure, efficient spaces for our students to thrive,” says Dan Schlotfeldt, superintendent of the Snoqualmie Valley School District, in the joint announcement.
“By upgrading to the latest Honeywell building platform, we are able to stay ahead of the curve to further ensure our facilities are safe, efficient and ready for the current and future needs of our students, teachers and staff,” he says.
