Johnson Controls Inc. will consolidate all of its domestic air shipping to DHL in a three-year, multimillion-dollar agreement, DHL said Monday.

Plantation, Fla.,-based DHL also said Glendale-based Johnson Controls, an automotive systems and facility management and control company, will rely on it for international shipping services. Johnson Controls has 136,000 employees in more than 1,000 locations serving customers in 125 countries.

Johnson Controls had used a combination of carriers for several years.

Both companies are also evaluating joint procurement and reseller alliances, DHL said.
