Johnson Controls said the reorganization allows it to increase attention and investments in the North American branches. The North America branch business will continue to provide HVAC systems, services and solutions to customers in the U.S. and Canada.
“As we continue to evolve as a global multi-industrial company, reorganizing Building Efficiency, along with our ongoing investments and growth initiatives, solidifies our focus and commitment on the business as a core strategic platform for Johnson Controls,” said Johnson Controls Chairman and CEO Alex Molinaroli.
There are also some changes in leadership within the company. Dave Myers, president of Building Efficiency, resigned. Bill Jackson, who was most recently executive vice president of Corporate Development, is now president of Building Efficiency. Trent Nevill, vice president and general manager of the North American branch business, will continue in his current role and report to Mr. Molinaroli on an interim basis.
