Minneapolis-based Honeywell has joined the Integrated Team Solutions consortium to work on the Woodstock General Hospital project. Integrated Team Solutions signed a $268.7 million contract to construct, finance and maintain the hospital that will replace an existing Woodstock, Ont., hospital by Summer 2011.

The 178-bed building's automation, security and life safety systems will be designed and installed by Honeywell who will also deliver a Total Asset Management program to provide service, maintenance and security for the next 30 years for the building.

In addition, Honeywell will install energy management and control systems, surveillance, access control, fire alarm and nurse call equipment. The energy management system is integral to the hospital's goal of LEED certification.

The hospital is being constructed under the government of Ontario's Alternative Financing and Procurement model.

Other members of Integrated Team Solutions include financier LPF Infrastructure Fund and builder EllisDon.
