Rockwell Collins Appoint Senior Vice President For New Information Management Services Business

Rockwell Collins today announced the foundation of a new Information Management Services (IMS) business that combines recently acquired ARINC Inc. with its Flight Information Solutions business and its Ascend family of products and services.

Jeff Standerski has been appointed senior vice president of Information Management Services. The new business will report to Rockwell Collins CEO and President Kelly Ortberg, along with the company's existing Commercial Systems and Government Systems businesses.

"In recent years there's been a dramatic increase in demand by airlines and business aircraft operators, as well as the broader transportation and security industries, for the types of network and connectivity services ARINC provides, and we expect that demand will continue to grow," said Standerski. "I'm excited about the opportunity to work with this talented and dedicated team to explore the new possibilities that now exist given the combined strengths of our organization."

Standerski's extensive aviation experience includes 25 years in Rockwell Collins' Commercial Systems and Government Systems businesses. Most recently, he was vice president and general manager, Business and Regional Systems. He previously served as vice president and general manager, Air Transport Systems, and as vice president, Strategy Development for Commercial Systems.
