Our Future
We are focused on the opportunities before us as we position the company for best-in-class performance.
In all of our businesses, we will continue to focus on consistent improvement while reducing variation and inefficiencies.

We will continue EMBRACING TRANSFORMATION. We know the journey to excellence in all that we do has just begun. It takes time to transform, and we remain intently focused on positioning Kaman to deliver long-term shareholder value, just as we have for 77 years
