Boeing
has made a series of executive leadership changes and restructured Boeing Commercial Airplanes to better align resources
across its development and production programs and strengthen oversight of its global supply chain.
Effective immediately, Commercial Airplanes Supplier Management, Fabrication, Propulsion Systems and the Manufacturing and Quality
functional organization are part of a new organization, called Supply Chain Management and Operations, led by Ray Conner. Conner, 53, has
extensive experience in program leadership and manufacturing and supply chain management. He most recently was vice president of Sales
for Commercial Airplanes.
All current production and development programs, including the 787 Dreamliner and 747-8, are being brought together in a new Airplane
Programs organization reporting to Pat Shanahan, formerly vice president and general manager of the 787 program. Shanahan, 46, continues to
have direct oversight and accountability for the 787 program, with Scott Fancher becoming that program's vice president and general manager.
Fancher, 50, who has extensive program management, systems engineering and advanced design experience, previously led the company's
missile defense business.
Carolyn
Corvi, who led the previous Airplane Programs organization, has announced she will retire at year's end after a 34-year career at
Boeing.
Marlin Dailey succeeds Conner as vice president of Sales. Dailey, 52, is a 28-year Boeing veteran who most recently led Commercial Airplanes
sales efforts in Europe, Russia and Central Asia.
