Insights

The 25-year contract for Victoria's first all-electric hospital represents a significant technological advancement in healthcare facility management. The implementation of Honeywell Forge Enterprise Performance Management software introduces advanced machine learning capabilities for automated energy optimization and predictive maintenance. This system's ability to self-adjust while maintaining critical air quality standards is particularly innovative for healthcare settings.

The project's focus on being fully electric aligns with growing market demand for sustainable infrastructure and positions Honeywell strategically in the healthcare facility management sector. The integration of Ecologically Sustainable Development (ESD) technologies and automated building management systems demonstrates a sophisticated approach to long-term operational efficiency and cost management.

The contract's value proposition extends beyond immediate energy savings to include reduced maintenance costs and improved system reliability, which are important for healthcare facilities. This project could serve as a blueprint for future healthcare facility developments, potentially creating additional market opportunities in the growing sustainable infrastructure sector.

The 274-bed Melton Hospital project represents a significant infrastructure investment in Melbourne's western region. The facility's comprehensive service offering, including 24-hour emergency care, maternity, mental health and medical training capabilities, addresses critical healthcare needs in a growing metropolitan area.

The public-private partnership structure, involving major players like Lendlease and Compass Group, demonstrates a robust business model for healthcare infrastructure development.

  • 25-year contract anchored by Honeywell Forge Enterprise Performance Management software
  • Construction of Victoria's first all-electric hospital supports state's progress to achieving net zero by 2050

MELBOURNE, Australia, Dec. 4, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Honeywell (NASDAQ: HON) has been selected as the building automation provider for the new Melton Hospital, a 274-bed facility that will be Victoria's first fully electric hospital. Honeywell will help provide comprehensive management for building automation systems to optimize the hospital's energy and operational efficiency outcomes.

Under a 25-year contract, Honeywell will install its building management solutions — including Honeywell Forge Enterprise Performance Management software — to help create a more energy efficient, automated and secure facility. As Victoria's first healthcare facility using only electricity as an energy source, the Melton Hospital will help minimise emissions and support the state of Victoria's progress to achieving net zero by 2050.

The integration of Honeywell Forge will enable condition-based maintenance that helps improve the resiliency of critical systems around the clock, reduce unplanned reactive work and lower energy costs. Through Honeywell Forge's machine learning capabilities that continuously study a building's energy consumption patterns, the hospital will be able to automatically adjust to optimal energy-saving settings without compromising critical air quality.

"Honeywell's technologically advanced building automation solutions combined with our decades of experience in total asset management make us uniquely positioned to support the building services for the Melton Hospital both today and over the next 25 years," said Lisa Whitehead, vice president and general manager, Pacific, Honeywell Building Automation. "As a partner to the Melton Hospital, we are committed to helping deliver Victoria's first energy-efficient hospital that provides an optimum indoor environment with a best-in-class design built to address the critical needs of patients."

The Melton Hospital will embed world-class Ecologically Sustainable Development (ESD) technologies to maximise ecological efficiencies in all elements of the design, construction and operation of the development. Honeywell will manage the building in alignment with these efficiency goals, optimizing peak energy demand, energy consumption and water consumption costs so that the project remains flexible and adaptable to changing social and climatic conditions.

The new Melton Hospital will have a 24-hour emergency department, ambulatory care, maternity, neonatal, mental health and radiology services, as well as a new education and training hub for doctors and nurses in Melbourne's western region.

The hospital is being delivered as a public-private partnership: Western Health is the public operator of all clinical services and the Exemplar Health consortium, through a contract from the Victorian Government, is responsible for the hospital's financing, design, construction and maintenance for 25 years following the facility's construction completion. The Exemplar Health consortium includes Capella Capital as sponsor and investor; Lendlease Infrastructure Investments and Invesis as investors; Lendlease as the builder; and Honeywell and Compass Group as facilities and maintenance management providers.

"This work will help deliver a critical uplift in the capacity of public health services in Melton," said Sarah Neaves, director, Capella Capital. "As Melbourne's outer west continues to grow, the Melton Hospital project will allow the hospital to better support its patients, families and staff. We look forward to working closely with the Victorian Government, Western Health and consortium members to deliver this critical piece of health infrastructure."
