Changes Expected To Improve Competitive Position And Long-Term
Growth Opportunities
Following its recent acquisition of Goodrich, United
Technologies has announced a new organizational structure that
groups some of the company's businesses into new aerospace and
commercial organizations. Company management says this new
structure will allow United Technologies to better serve customers
through greater integration across product lines and to drive
growth by taking full advantage of technology investments and the
company's global footprint.
Effective immediately, Alain Bellemare is appointed President
and Chief Operating Officer of UTC Propulsion and Aerospace
Systems. He will have operating responsibility for Pratt &
Whitney and Hamilton Sundstrand with the presidents of both units
reporting directly to him. Michael Dumais is appointed, effective
immediately, President of Hamilton Sundstrand, where he has held a
number of senior executive roles, including Vice President &
General Manager, Customer Service, and, most recently, Vice
President of Operations.
"Alain is particularly well qualified for this new role given
his track record of outstanding operating performance and his
demonstrated leadership capabilities," Chenevert said. "His
strong program management experience, coupled with his
understanding of global competition and outstanding customer
relationships, will serve him well as he leads this exciting new
UTC aerospace sector and positions the company to take full
advantage of recent platform wins at Pratt & Whitney and
Hamilton Sundstrand."
At the same time, Geraud Darnis is appointed President and Chief
Executive Officer of UTC Climate, Controls and Security Systems,
which is comprised of the combined Carrier Corp. and UTC Fire &
Security units. For the balance of 2011, Carrier and UTC Fire
& Security will continue to report financial and operational
results separately.
