Vestas is merging Technology organization (CTO) and Manufacturing & Global Procurement organization (COO) into a single Technology and Operations organization (CTOO). This unified CTOO will serve as the foundation for an enterprise-wide industrial system within Vestas and will be led by the current Chief Technology Officer, Anders Nielsen. This integration is a natural progression in Vestas’ advancement of technology, product introductions, and manufacturing ramp-up, simplifying interfaces both within the company and across the value chain.
Henrik Andersen, Group President & CEO, said “Vestas has built a strong backlog across onshore, offshore, and service towards the end of this decade, and we are today announcing the next step in our organisational evolution to deliver on our customer commitments. The united CTOO-organisation will help accelerate ramp-up and industrialisation across Vestas and the industry by simplifying interfaces, collaboration and strengthening our end-to-end approach. I’m very pleased Anders Nielsen has accepted to continue leading Vestas’ industrialisation forward, and I want to thank Tommy Rahbek Nielsen for his incredible contribution to Vestas for more than 25 years. In the role as COO, Tommy was pivotal in keeping Vestas running during the pandemic, and he has done an excellent job in maturing our COO-organisation to a level that enables us to take the next step for the benefit of Vestas.”
