John Cooper, senior vice president of Global Government and Defense at AAR, was featured in the most recent Executive Spotlight interview with ExecutiveBiz on Thursday. He discussed the company’s growth and success heading into 2022, strategic goals in the government and defense sectors for the coming year as well as its recent $365M contract award from the U.S. Air Force for aviation services.
Here’s an excerpt from the interview with Cooper:
“Well like I mentioned, our plan is simple – delight our customers for the contracts we are executing, be the Industry’s best in Commercial derivative support, and balance our portfolio by expanding our operations and support into more tactical aircraft fleets.
One other area we want to leverage is our digital support offerings. We already use numerous proprietary products to manage our support, and it is definitely a positive discriminator for us and a big part of why we win. We want to continue to capitalize on our digital support, certainly internal to AAR, and potentially externally to Government and Defense customers.”
