Jill Frey, Cummins Facility Services CEO, Named 2025 Trailblazer Award Winner
Each year, the Women's Business Enterprise National Council – said to be the largest certifier of women-owned businesses in the US - presents the Trailblazer Award to an outstanding female leader in the community, and the Award has this year gone to Jill Frey, the CEO of Cummins Facility Services.
In addition to leading CFS, Jill is the visionary behind four companies that together are helping shape the future of the built environment. She is the driving force behind FacilityGenius, a real-time sensor and data platform that brings transparency and intelligence to facility operations, and FacilityInsites, a consulting firm that helps organisations modernise through customised tech integration. Jill also leads as chairwoman of Facility Data Standard, uniting industry leaders around a shared vision for standardised, actionable building data.
"Not only is Jill an incredible leader at the four companies she runs, but she empowers her team to be innovative and have ownership of their roles," says Chuck Hendrix, WBEC ORV Interim President & CEO.
“Cummins Facility Solutions is a prime example of a business being successful due to every department firing on all cylinders and being willing to pivot when needed. Somehow, Jill also finds time to be an active volunteer with WBEC ORV, among many other organisations.”
