JLL and Hexmodal enhance healthcare facility compliance accuracy

CHICAGO, Jan. 12, 2026 – JLL’s Healthcare Division today announced a strategic collaboration with Hexmodal, a leading provider of automated compliance testing technology for healthcare facilities. This alliance brings together JLL’s proven healthcare expertise with Hexmodal’s innovative smart IoT devices to deliver enhanced operational efficiency and compliance accuracy to healthcare clients.

The collaboration addresses critical challenges facing healthcare facilities by automating traditional manual testing processes. Hexmodal’s smart life safety devices provide continuous monitoring of essential safety equipment, including fire extinguishers, emergency lighting, exit signs, temperature monitors and leak detectors.

“Healthcare organizations are seeking automation solutions that don’t require massive capital investment, and the JLL and Hexmodal collaboration delivers technology-driven solutions that improve compliance outcomes while reducing operational costs,” said Carey Sealy, Managing Director of JLL Healthcare’s Advanced Technology Group Enterprise Services (ATG). “This is especially vital with the Joint Commission’s updated accreditation standards in effect. Healthcare organizations leveraging digital facility management compliance technologies with real-time regulatory updates and integrated training support will gain a significant competitive advantage in maintaining operational excellence and regulatory adherence.”

The alliance enables JLL to offer clients scalable inspection services that significantly reduce field service labor costs while increasing compliance accuracy. Hexmodal’s cloud-based platform generates automatic compliance reports and integrates seamlessly with existing CMMS systems to create work orders when issues are detected. Additionally, JLL is building an integration between Hexmodal and JLL’s technology platform, which provides a full range of data management and compliance services, including asset and document management, space analysis, life safety assessment and compliance automation.

Key benefits of the collaboration include comprehensive reporting and monitoring capabilities that support JLL’s “always-on” compliance mentality and increased innovation in serviced delivery via scalable inspection services using automated IoT solutions.

“This collaboration represents our commitment to delivering innovative, evidence-based solutions that help healthcare clients optimize facility operations while maintaining the highest standards of safety and compliance,” said Cheryl Carron, COO of Work Dynamics Americas and President of the Healthcare Division, JLL. “By enabling healthcare leaders to create environments that improve patient outcomes and caregiver satisfaction, we’re ensuring that real estate strategy directly supports missions of care and operational goals.”

“Healthcare facilities teams are being asked to do more with fewer people, tighter budgets and increasing documentation requirements,” added Christopher Hariz, Co-Founder of Hexmodal. “This partnership with JLL is about bringing low cost, easy-to-use technology to help facilities managers move away from manual, error-prone testing and paper-based records and toward continuous, verifiable compliance. By combining JLL’s deep operational expertise with Hexmodal’s IT-free automated compliance devices, we are giving healthcare organizations a practical way to stay survey-ready every day without large capital expenditures or added strain on their teams.”
