“This organizational change is part of a transition plan designed to achieve that goal,” Stoehr said. “Rick has a strong track record of moving our company forward in a variety of business and technical initiatives that have enhanced our systems strategy, standardized our equipment platform and helped our business service mix evolve to support our customer’s changing needs. He is ready to take a stronger role in running the day-to-day activities of the company.”

He added the change would give him more time to focus on strategic initiatives and customer relationships.

Milwaukee Electronics designs and manufactures custom circuit board assemblies for medical, telecommunications, transportation, military and HVAC industries. The company has manufacturing operations in Glendale, Oregon and Mexico.
