Boeing taps Qantas IT chief as CIO

Boeing this week named a full-time replacement for former chief information officer Ted Colbert, who was promoted to lead the company’s parts and services business. Susan Doniz, currently CIO at Qantas Group, joins Boeing as CIO in May, reporting to CE David Calhoun. She succeeds interim CIO Vishwa Uddanwadiker, who took the role after Colbert was named CE of Boeing Global Services in October. Doniz will manage IT staff across 50 countries and lead digital initiatives such as Digital Enterprise, a companywide project to improve IT systems and processes, including those around enterprise resource planning. Doniz’s team also will be integral to a unit called Boeing AnalytX, which pulls together analytics and other capabilities across the company to provide insights internally and to its customers. <br/>
