CTO Insights: Refactored ICW

In today’s rapidly evolving technological landscape, ensuring the reliability, performance, and security of your control systems is critical. At Honeywell, we deeply value the trust placed in us by our existing ICW customers. As many of you currently operate on Windows 2016, which will reach end-of-life on January 12, 2027, the time to act is now. The Refactored ICW is designed to strengthen your system and prepare it for the future.

Why Upgrade to the Refactored ICW?

1. Enhanced Security Protocols: Cybersecurity is a top priority in modern operations, and the Refactored ICW integrates advanced protection measures to guard your system against potential threats.
2. Extended System Lifespan: The refactor comes with updates to both software and hardware components, extending the effective life of your current system. This means you can maximize the return on your existing investment while delaying the need for more extensive and costly overhauls. The update ensures that your ICW system remains a valuable and efficient part of your operations for years to come.
3. Seamless Integration with Minimal Disruption: One of the standout benefits of the Refactored ICW is that it preserves your current workflows, user interfaces, and custom configurations. This minimizes disruption and reduces the need for retraining, ensuring that your team can continue working without interruptions. The update process is smooth, allowing you to maintain your productivity while transitioning to an enhanced system.
4. Cost-Effective Solution: Compared to a full platform overhaul, the Refactored ICW is a cost-efficient choice. It delivers substantial value by optimizing your current legacy system and improving operational efficiency at a lower cost. This strategic approach helps you save on change management and engineering time while boosting system performance.
