Continental has named Peter Dobrowolski as the new product manager for diagnostics and services – North America.

In his new role, Dobrowolski will be responsible for managing the portfolio of diagnostics products that include the Autodiagnos Pro automotive diagnostic system, Autodiagnos TPMS tools and the Autodiagnos Drive connected-vehicle-data solution.

Dobrowolski is a long-time employee of Continental, serving in several capacities during the past 10 years. He was a senior product manager for the Tachographs, Telematics and Services group, where he managed a startup compliance product for the heavy-duty trucking industry and oversaw the entire product lifecycle from concept through to market deployment in both the United States and Canada. Dobrowolski also was the health, safety and facilities manager for Continental’s Allentown, Pennsylvania, facility.

“We are thrilled to add Peter to our Diagnostics and Services team,” said Christopher Bahlman, head of diagnostics and services for Continental. “He has great expertise in product development and understands the unique challenges of launching products in emerging markets. His experience and know-how will help us to identify potential market opportunities and expand Continental’s diagnostics business.”

Prior to joining Continental, Dobrowolski was employed by Saab Automotive AB as assistant manager – parts technical services and worked on the operations support staff for Logistics Services at Caterpillar Inc.

He holds an MBA in Marketing from Strayer University, a BSBA in Management from Kutztown University, and an AAS in Logistics Technologies from Lehigh Carbon Community College.

Continental Diagnostics & Services (D&S) was founded nearly 10 years ago to address the needs of service providers for advanced diagnostics, service information, connected services and specialty solutions, such as PTI (periodic technical inspection). D&S has developed diagnostics and service solutions for North America under the Autodiagnos brand. Key product offerings include professional aftermarket scan tools, TPMS diagnostic and service tools, and a connected-vehicle-data platform.

      DMA Names Fred Snow President and COO, Expanding Leadership Role  
      By Counterman
      John Treece, chairman and CEO of
      link hidden, please login to view, announced the promotion of Fred Snow to president and chief operating officer in the letter below: “As DMA strives to continue to grow and deliver excellence to our customers, building a strong and sustainable senior leadership team is imperative to our organization’s success. Today, I am pleased to announce Fred Snow will be assuming the title of President, along with his current role as Chief Operating Officer.
      Fred brought with him to
      link hidden, please login to view a very strong Automotive Aftermarket background and work experience in managing and running an organization similar to DMA. In his two years with our organization, Fred has comfortably assimilated into the DMA culture and exhibited thoughtful decision-making and leadership, while directly managing many of our key projects. He is now intimately knowledgeable about the workings of DMA, as he has been involved in most aspects of the business, extending beyond his direct responsibilities. I fully trust Fred’s ability to assess our business situations and make timely and deliberate decisions. He and I are fully aligned in the direction we steer the company and the effort it will take to achieve success. We both share a passion for serving the customer with a sense of urgency as our #1 priority. Fred’s areas of direct responsibility will remain the same as today: Supply Chain, Operations, Customer Service, Facility Management, and he will be assuming Product Management, and Engineering & Quality Management. This change of title acknowledges that Fred is assisting me in the overall day-to-day running of the company. It also represents that Fred is now my official backup for directing the company and making any required decisions in my absence. Fred also has full authority to sign on behalf of the company. 
      My role and responsibilities remain the same as CEO and Chairman of the Board. With the launching of our new joint venture factory SDI in Thailand and other corporate travel obligations, it was clear that the time had come when DMA needed someone officially in charge when I am unavailable. This evolutionary organizational step assures the stability and consistency that positions DMA to continue to be a fast-acting and customer-responsive company with clear lines of leadership and communication for our employees. 
      I am confident that this change is another positive milestone in the development of DMA. Please join me in congratulating Fred on this well-deserved appointment.”
