Eaton has reorganized its Truck Aftermarket Division and has moved its automated transmissions unit.
"Aftermarket growth is key to the Truck business unit's overall strategy of creating value for our customers and reducing the overall cyclicality of our traditional markets," said Jeff Romig, Aftermarket general manager. "Creation of these new leadership roles will provide an increased focus on providing new growth opportunities for Eaton and a greater portfolio of products and services for our customers."
Josette Russell, appointed to the newly created position of manager, Marketing and Business Development, will lead the division's strategic development, product management, marketing and growth development activities. She will relocate to Galesburg, Mich. For the past two years, Russell was manager, Business Systems Deployment Worldwide, at the Clutch Division.
Chris Shemas is appointed to the newly created position of sales manager, NAFTA. She will lead aftermarket sales growth efforts both at OEM accounts and with distributors. Most recently, Shemas was manager of OEM sales and marketing for Truck. Prior to joining Eaton, she spent more than 10 years at Dana Corp.
Steve Melvin, appointed to the newly created position of manager, Service Product Development, is responsible for developing and commercializing service-related products, services and software. During his 13-year career at Eaton, Melvin has held a variety of positions in both sales and service. Most recently, he was manager of Truck Service and Support.
In addition, Tim Morscheck, formerly vice-president and general manager of Trucking Electronic Systems Division, has been appointed vice-president - chief technology officer for its Truck business unit.
In a related move, the Automated Transmissions business unit is being moved out of the Truck Electronics Systems division and blended back into Eaton's Heavy Duty and Light and Medium Duty Transmission divisions.
Jim Sweetnam, senior vice president and group executive for Truck, described the restructuring as a natural evolution of Eaton's businesses in the trucking industry. "TESD, under Tim Morscheck's dynamic leadership, was established in 1999 as a special projects division, designed to grow and nurture some of our most exciting and promising technologies such as transmission automation, electronic datalink powertrain communications and collision warning systems. As these programs have continued to mature into the mainstream of our truck component offerings, they will now increasingly benefit from a more standardized marketing and manufacturing structure."
In his newly created position, Morscheck will continue to explore and foster new technologies for Eaton in the commercial trucking industry. He will also continue to oversee the Eaton VORAD collision warning system business unit, as well as Eaton's electronic braking systems business and hybrid-electric powertrain development program.
