PLANO, Texas, June 30, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Boeing (NYSE:
BA) tomorrow will launch its third major business unit when Boeing
Global Services begins operating alongside Commercial Airplanes and
Defense, Space & Security. This new dedicated services business
focuses on the needs of government, space and commercial customers
worldwide.
Boeing Chairman, President and CEO Dennis Muilenburg announced the formation of
Global Services in November 2016 to
expand Boeing's share of a global—and growing—commercial and
government services market worth an estimated $2.6 trillion over the next decade.
"Aerospace services represents one of our biggest growth
opportunities for the future," said Muilenburg. "Standing up Global
Services will accelerate our capabilities across all Boeing
services and support areas—from our traditional parts,
modifications and upgrades business to strengthening our data
analytics and information-based offerings. Our services expertise,
the global reach of our business, and our strong customer
partnerships have us well positioned to compete and win in this
important sector."
Boeing has been working since November to fully define and
structure the integrated new business, which combines key
capabilities of the company's former Commercial Aviation Services
and Global Services & Support groups. Led by President and CEO
Stan Deal, Global Services will
bring innovative service solutions to customers in four key
capability areas: Supply Chain, Engineering, Modifications &
Maintenance, Digital Aviation & Analytics, and Training &
Professional Services.
"We've been talking with our customers over the past few months
as we've prepared for this transition, and tomorrow they can begin
to see the value of this dedicated services unit that allows us to
deliver agile, cost-competitive solutions so they can reduce costs,
drive efficiency and ultimately optimize their operations," said
Deal.
Global Services, headquartered in the Dallas area, was formed by integrating the
services capabilities of the government, space and commercial
sectors into a single, customer-focused business. Operating as a
third business unit of Boeing, Global Services provides agile,
cost-competitive services to commercial and government customers
worldwide.
