BAE Names Jeremy Tondreault as President of Platforms & Services Unit

BAE Systems has appointed Jeremy Tondreault as the new president of its platforms and services business unit, effective Jan. 4, 2021. He will become part of BAE's senior leadership team led by President and CEO Tom Arsenault. 

Tondreault will succeed Guy Montminy, a Wash100 winner. Montminy will remain in the company as a legacy fellow until his planned retirement later in 2021, BAE said Wednesday. 

“Guy has made significant contributions to our company, our employees and our customers over his 35-year career. His dedication to our people and our mission, and his focus on safety, performance and operational excellence have guided the business through challenging times and positioned it for success into the future," Arsenault said.

BAE's platform and services unit provides tracked and wheeled armored combat vehicles, naval guns, naval ship repair and modernization, artillery and missile launching systems, precision strike munitions and ordnance and other technologies.

Tondreault has been with BAE for 25 years, having held leadership roles in two sectors. He was the vice president of operations for the electronic systems sector and the vice president and general manager of the combat mission systems business.

He has held roles in program management, operations, engineering and line management, managing the development, production and delivery of highly complex products, BAE said.

“Jeremy’s strong leadership of our combat vehicle portfolio, experience ramping up production lines, and deep expertise in operations and program management have positioned him as the right choice to advance the sector’s performance and continue driving operational excellence for our customers," Arsenault said.

BAE is a defense and space company headquartered in London, England. The company specializes in combat systems, aeronautics products, ship repair, avionics, navigation, information technology, space electronics, communications and engineering, among others.
