Allan Cook, Executive Chairman, and Fabrizio Giulianini, Chief Executive Officer of Selex ES, have presented the business structure of Selex ES.

Selex ES will be operational as of January 1, 2013, following the integration of Selex Galileo, Selex Elsag and Selex Sistemi Integrati. Selex ES will be a global business, with a workforce of approximately 17,900, revenues in excess of €3.5 billion, main operations in Italy and the UK and a strong industrial and commercial footprint in the US, Germany, Turkey, Romania, Brazil, Saudi Arabia and India.

Selex ES aims to develop and increase its market share in domestic and emerging countries by leveraging on its competencies in the air, land, sea, security and civil domains. The organisation reflects this position through the creation of three main divisions, each focused on a specific market and customer.

The Air and Space Systems division, led by Norman Bone, which includes all airborne capabilities, technologies and products ranging from UAS and integrated mission systems to radar, electronic warfare equipment, avionics, simulation systems, target drones and space sensors, payloads and equipment.

The Land and Naval Systems division led by Lorenzo Mariani comprises capabilities in the land and naval domains from the design of complex system architectures to tactical integrated systems, naval combat management systems, land and naval radar and situational awareness sensors and military communications infrastructures.

The Security and Smart Systems division led by Paolo Piccini covers network infrastructure and systems architecture capabilities for homeland protection and the complex urban environment as well as air and vessel traffic management.

The three divisions will be supported by an operations/engineering function led by Chief Operating Officer Alessio Facondo and will be organised by capability/technology and will supply the divisions with engineering and supply chain services and a number of staff functions. The Chief Financial Officer is Goeff Munday and Marketing, Sales and Business Development Executive Director is Gianpiero Lorandi.

“I am proud to introduce the Selex ES management team and organisation,” declared Fabrizio Giulianini, CEO of Selex ES, adding: “I am confident that the customer-oriented approach that Allan and I have designed for our organisation will offer focused solutions to a broad range of civil and military requirements leveraging the breadth of our dual application technologies. Selex ES will have the strength and the skills to apply advanced information technology, system integration and sensor capability to develop sustainable, man-centric approaches to services and urban management and protection.”
