Kodak's Graphic Communications Group (GCG) has a big job ahead of it to rationalize and integrate its new holdings (KPG and Creo) with its five existing businesses (NexPress, Encad, Kodak Versamark, Document Imaging and Business Process Services). Two operating units have been announced, with former KPG CEO Jeff Jacobson being named COO of the Graphic Solutions & Services unit. Jacobson will be responsible for integration of the R&D, commercialization, manufacturing, product marketing and administrative functions of Encad, NexPress, KPG—and now Creo—into a single organization. Similarly, Kodak Versamark CEO Nachum "Homi" Shamir will lead the integration of Kodak Versamark, the Document Imaging business of Kodak Document Products and Services, and Business Process Services into Kodak's new Transaction & Industrial Solutions unit.
