"The extremely talented and experienced Pi Innovo team have provided exceptional modular software and controls solutions for original equipment manufacturers for more than 25 years," James Kamsickas, Dana chairman and CEO, said.

The software and controls expertise of PI Innovo builds on Dana's capabilities in designing, engineering, and delivering complete vehicle integration for e-Propulsion systems, to further push the company toward vehicle electrification.
