Lean and Customer Focused

AFT is comprised of geographical business centers with a General Manager located in each region:

  • Americas (North and South)                                  
  • Europe (EU, Russia, Middle East & Africa)
  • Asia (China, India & Southeast Asia)
  • Japan

Each AFT Region is focused on a specific set of customers. A region also has one or more manufacturing sites. There is a Vice President and General Manager leading each region.

The Service and Engineering divisions work under a centralized structure, led by a vice president. Research and Development , including Product Management, are also a centralized organization under the VP of Technology. The supporting senior management structure - including the CEO, CFO, Marketing director and Information Technology manager - has a global focus both in supporting regions and sharing best practice among regions. An annual strategy and planning focus group brings all the regional and global leadership together for setting short and long term key performance targets.
