Duncan Aviation has announced that Terry Stehlik has accepted a position as a Program Manager for Government andamp; Special Programs at the company's full-service facility in Lincoln, Nebraska. Stehlik recently celebrated her 26th anniversary at the company.
With her new position, Stehlik will start by managing a multi-year contract for a large fleet of aircraft.
"In this position, I'll serve as the primary point of contact between the customer and our internal team to ensure the program expectations and metrics are met," Stehlik said. "Providing our customers with a single point of contact who coordinates communication among the production teams lets customers focus on their aircraft instead of having to remember whom they dealt with in which shop."
"Additionally, it's my responsibility to ensure that we stay in compliance with Federal Acquisition Regulations and Defense Federal Acquisition Regulations on every project," she said."
These acquisition regulations are related to government procurement in the United States and refer to contracts issued by the United States Military and NASA, as well as by US civilian federal agencies.
For over 14 years, Stehlik has worked as a Government Contracts Manager and Facility Security Officer. She knows the issues facing the Government andamp; Special Programs well based on her experience.
"We're pleased Terry has accepted this new opportunity," Manager of Government andamp; Special Programs Dave Shipperbottom said. "Her background in Government programs, along with her great interpersonal savvy, organizational skills, and strong customer service will serve her well in this new position."
Stehlik started her career at Duncan Aviation in 1996 as a credit analyst in Accounts Receivable. She spent 12 years working with the aviation industry OEMs. After moving to the Government andamp; Special Programs office in 2008, Stehlik gained knowledge about the workings of Government contracts and Department of Defense security requirements, setting her up for her newest position.
"I'm excited about this opportunity because I get to work directly with customers again," Stehlik said. "I'm looking forward to talking to potential customers and vendors and sharing Duncan Aviation's many capabilities. Taking ownership of projects from start to finish is personally rewarding, and I learn from each and every project."
