Kapur was named President and Chief Operating Officer in July of 2022. Since then, Honeywell said he has “led the creation of new solutions to help customers drive their sustainability transformations and accelerate their digital transformation journeys.”

Kapur has also overseen the continued integration of Honeywell Accelerator across the organization and furthering its adoption as an operational system, the company said. Prior to his role as COO, Vimal served as President and CEO of PMT, an $11 billion global leader in the development of high-performance products and solutions including low global warming refrigerants, specialty films for healthcare and photovoltaic applications, leading technologies for the global refining and petrochemicals industry, and process solutions.
