World-Class Organization to Ensure your Program Success
Curtiss-Wright has established a world-class program management organization designed to ensure the success of your system integration program and to keep you informed of your program’s progress every step of the way. From the onset, we assign a dedicated program manager who is responsible for program performance and has direct access to the highest levels of management, including the general manager. Our team approach empowers project team members with full authority to accomplish their tasks.

One of the key benefits of this approach is that it enables team members to leverage the wealth of technical and business experience of our senior managers.

Partnering to Reduce Risk and Accelerate Development
