CNC Software Inc. has reorganized to incorporate its dedicated educational division and better align it with the needs of the industry. The group of four representatives housed in the Gig Harbor, Washington, office now report to divisional leaders located in the Tolland, Connecticut, headquarters.
CNC Software President Meghan Summers West explains that the move officially integrates the company’s educational unit into the corporate office. “Previously, our educational group worked as a standalone department,” she says, “but now it has been integrated into our main organization, allowing us to allocate even more resources to our educational ventures.”
Dan Newby, who had previously served as the educational sales manager for over 27 years, will report to Doug Nemeth, director of sales for North America and Europe, and will continue his work as educational territory manager. Other staff onsite in Washington will report to respective department managers in Connecticut.
