Verizon Business on Thursday announced that General Motors and Honeywell will be among the first enterprise customers to install Verizon’s indoor 5G service inside their corporate offices to drive vital digital transformation initiatives. 

Built with the bandwidth and speeds to support a variety of business and industrial applications, each company will work with Verizon to develop customized use cases that speak to their needs and roadmaps.

 

General Motors (GM) and Verizon Business partnered to install 5G at GM’s recently announced Detroit-Hamtramck Assembly Center, known as Factory ZERO, an all-electric vehicle (EV) assembly plant. The greatly expanded capacity of 5G will speed the deployment of future innovations in advanced automotive manufacturing. In addition, 5G supports wider use of devices like the new iPhones 12 lineup used to run apps supporting quality, safety and efficiency in the manufacturing environment.

Honeywell is installing Verizon’s 5G network inside their new corporate headquarters in Charlotte. The service will serve their Innovation Center and Executive Leadership floor, where they will showcase different Honeywell products and solutions that benefit from the high bandwidth and low latency provided by Verizon 5G.

Tami Erwin, CEO of Verizon Business
If the past few months have taught us anything, it’s that the acceleration to digital will only get faster and our customers must seize this moment to scale quickly, and General Motors and Honeywell are two industry-leading companies that are first movers in this area.

Randy Mott, GM Executive Vice President and Chief Information Officer
Factory ZERO is GM’s flagship assembly plant in our journey to an all-electric future. This is another example of cutting-edge technology improving quality and speed as GM accelerates its rollout of EVs.
