The new department supports the creation and further development of digital solutions for commercial vehicle tyres worldwide. The new structure came into force on August 1.<\/p>\n<p>Continental Commercial Vehicle Tyres helps fleet operators to use their tires for as long and as efficiently as possible. In order to achieve this, transportation companies need intelligent, digital solutions with latest technology for tyre management.<\/p>\n<p>Andreas Esser, head of the Commercial Vehicle Tires business unit at Continental explains the strategically important decision: \u201cFollowing the acquisition of Bandvulc last year and the ContiPressureCheck, which was successfully launched on the market in 2013, enlarging the organization for digital solutions is the next step in transforming the Commercial Vehicle Tires business unit into an integrated solutions provider.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe Marketing team started to establish digital solutions with a handful of employees in Hanover in 2014. Since then, the team has constantly grown and is active in all regions of the world; we have proven a true start-up mentality here. We want to continue down this path in the future,\u201d says Michael Neuheisel.<\/p>\n<p>According to Neuheisel, the strengthening of the team shows the growing importance of digital solutions for commercial vehicle tyres. \u201cWe are going to further implement the start-up mentality by means of the new organizational approach, and thus fulfill the special requirements of an agile, digital business,\u201d Neuheisel is convinced.<\/p>\n<p>Michael Neuheisel has been working at Continental since 2001, and has several years of experience gained in innovation management as well as in managerial functions in research and development in the Tire division. Since 2014 Neuheisel has been in charge of Marketing at Commercial Vehicle Tires. In his new role as head of Digital Solutions he reports to Andreas Esser, head of the Commercial Vehicle Tires business unit.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Continental is restructuring itself for the development and marketing of digital solutions in the Commercial Vehicle Tyre business unit.
