Board Members
William C. McCormick
Bill McCormick became Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Precision Castparts Corp. in October 1994. He assumed the CEO responsibilities in August 1991, prior to which he served as President and COO.
During the last dramatic downturn in the aerospace cycle, Mr. McCormick provided the leadership for Precision Castparts’ aerospace businesses to maintain or improve operating margins while absorbing deep price cuts and significantly reduced volume. Subsequently, he embarked on an acquisitions strategy to reduce the company’s vulnerabilities to downturns in the aerospace cycle, while exploiting the upturns, and to identify other markets for growth in both revenues and profits. Mr. McCormick stepped down as CEO in August 2002 and as Chairman in August 2003.
Before joining Precision Castparts in April 1985, Mr. McCormick spent his career at General Electric in various businesses, including GE Aircraft Engines, Carboloy Systems, Distribution Equipment, and Industrial Electronics. He held a wide range of positions both in manufacturing and engineering over the course of 32 years. While he left GE as a department general manager, he began as a tool-and-die-making apprentice.
