On June 6, the board of directors of Springfield, VA-based ENSCO, Inc. announced the formation of the Mission Systems Group, a merging of its national security, aerospace, avionics and cybersecurity programs into one business unit. Kevin Pruett, ENSCO’s senior vice president of the Aerospace Engineering Group, was promoted to executive vice president and will be the lead executive for the Mission Systems Group, effective July 2.
“Application and technology synergies across these segments of our business offer significant advantages to our customers and their critical programs,” commented ENSCO, Inc. Chairman of the Board Greg Young. “Merging our National Security Solutions Group with the Aerospace Engineering Group into a single coordinated Mission Systems Group, will allow us to better leverage our technical and operational expertise to the benefit of our Defense, Aerospace and IC partners, and to provide greater opportunity to our employees in the coming decade. In my forty-plus years in the business, I’ve not seen a better team, led by an extraordinary executive, to meet the increasing demands of our customers in bringing disruptive technologies and stunning operational performance to overwhelm our adversaries and meet the mission-critical performance needs of our business partners.” he continued.
Starting at ENSCO in 2004, Pruett succeeded in achieving outstanding contract performance and customer service in the programs he oversaw; he implemented a highly successful acquisition management program; realized excellent employee retention; and exceptional financial management. Taking a team approach to bring the very best capabilities to our customer’s programs, he led the successful capture and execution of the Space & Missile Center RN/Systems Engineering and Integration contract and led a critical corporate acquisition adding vital technology to our aerospace programs. Pruett successfully integrated ENSCO’s avionics business within the aerospace division, resulting in significant improved business success. More recently, he successfully added several new programs on ENSCO’s client list in space and national security, creating substantial growth opportunities for the company and bringing more diversified and robust technological leverage to our existing customers, according to the company.
“Kevin’s business and management acumen, combined with the outstanding technical and program management team within the newly formed Missions Systems Group, offers a powerful combination for ENSCO’s continued growth and success with our customers in this critically important segment of the company,” said Boris Nejikovsky, president of ENSCO.
