“Successfully delivering an integrated In-Flight Entertainment System (IFES) and Satellite Connectivity solutions is a huge task for a program manager at Panasonic Avionics. From airline customers and aircraft OEMs to seat suppliers and 3rd Party Vendors all require constant communication, monitoring, coordinating, negotiating and managing of all parties’ expectations and deliverables. The same efforts are required for working with internal program teams from hardware and software engineering communities to integration test engineering and operations teams including 3rd party suppliers and partners in order to meet the program requirements and schedules. Yet, it is even more (10X) challenging when delivering a First-of-Type (FOT) system of hardware and software platform in addition to FOT digital services. These levels of complexities and scalabilities require a Program Manager who is well-versed with communication and relationships with people but also nimble, resourceful, analytical, rational, preservation and ability to see and plan the unforeseen. Jeff Hurst possesses those qualities and characteristics that are displayed from program inception to delivery. In addition to overcoming the IFE program’s complexities mentioned above, Jeff also led a team of engineers successfully implemented and delivered a full-cabin WIFI technology for an airline customer through the voice of the customer. This is a remarkable achievement, not only for Jeff and the engineering community within Panasonic Avionics but also for the company and the airline customer. As an Account Manager, I am sincerely grateful to have the pleasure in working with Jeff on the account fulfilling the airline program deliveries. ”
