GE Aviation Creates Digital Business, Daily to Lead



GE Aviation created a digital organization to bring all of the digital expertise from across the unit into one business. Jim Daily will lead the group as president and chief digital officer of Engineering and Technology for GE Aviation.

“Over the past two years, we have shown the significant benefit that GE Aviation can provide customers by combining our depth of aviation product knowledge with the rapidly growing technologies around digital and analytics,” said David Joyce, president and CEO of GE Aviation. “We have only taken our first steps in this journey and the GE Aviation Digital organization will be the driving force to achieve aggressive goals for operational value for our customers.”

GE Aviation Digital will form its own division within GE Aviation, supporting the operations of customers across the aviation ecosystem by leveraging data science, domain expertise and software capabilities to increase productivity and minimize down time.

Consistent with GE’s recent announcement establishing GE Digital led by GE’s Chief Digital Officer Bill Ruh, Daily will be responsible for the technology and business growth of the digital platforms and portfolio within GE Aviation. Daily joined GE Aviation in 2011 and will expand his current responsibilities leading Systems and Digital Engineering and Technology to include the role of chief digital officer.

GE Aviation, an operating unit of GE, is a provider of commercial and military jet engines, components and avionics, digital solutions and electrical power systems for aircraft.
