Riggs, who will be based in Tulsa, Oklahoma, was most recently Vice President of Operations for industrial provider Geon Performance Solutions. He also brings leadership experience in quality, operations, and safety at T.D. Williamson, Dresser-Rand, and Pratt & Whitney.
Kinley Services Group will include the company's current rotating equipment service, parts, and maintenance business offered through KATS, in addition to a new Industrial Services, Parts, Operations, and Maintenance and Digital Technologies division.
"I'm excited to join a fantastic organization and leadership team," Riggs said. "What attracted me to the role was both the people and the Kinley legacy and culture. I look forward to providing our customers innovative solutions combined with a 'Kinley Way' service experience that builds relationships and honors our over 125-year legacy."
The launch of the new Services Group was driven by Kinley's desire to provide customers with an enhanced, broader, and more comprehensive industrial service offering that extends Kinley's presence at customer sites beyond project completion.
