The company has entered into a collaboration with Microsoft and Johnson Controls to deliver smart buildings and spaces solutions (SB&S) that will accelerate the convergence of physical and digital infrastructure.

In addition to providing building solutions specific to a number of vertical markets by optimizing energy and water consumption as well as improving space utilization Johnson Controls delivers significant improvements to help customers achieve their goals. And with Infosys serving as the end-to-end integrator of smart space solutions, the partnership will create an ecosystem that fosters scale and speed globally and a desire to change the work space by providing buildings that are safe, efficient and sustainable.

“Our partnership with Infosys using Microsoft platforms gives customers the power to make faster, intelligent data-driven decisions to run its buildings more safely, efficiently and sustainably, and will increase productivity of their occupants,” said George Oliver, Chairman and CEO Johnson Controls. “Johnson Controls is transforming traditional building systems with services that merge the physical and digital worlds. We are showcasing how the cloud and AI can tap into data from physical spaces to drive better engagement with occupants and achieve new levels of efficiency and sustainability.”
