Cummins Names VP and President for New Power Segment
Columbus, Ind.-based power generation company Cummins names Amy Davis vice president and president of the company’s New Power Segment division, effective July 1.
Davis will replace Thad Ewald, who in addition to his role as vice president, strategy and corporate development, also established and incubated the New Power Segment. Ewald will continue to lead strategy and corporate development for Cummins.
“New Power is important to our future as we establish ourselves as a global leader in electrified and hydrogen fuel cell powertrains, and I am confident Amy is the right person to lead this business segment,” said Tom Linebarger, Cummins’ chairman and CEO. “Amy is an experienced leader with deep and broad experience at Cummins who has a strong track record of delivering results for our customers and our company. She is smart, strategic and understands the importance of engaging our customers and employees across our segments to drive growth and success. As I welcome Amy to this role, I also want to thank Thad for his initial leadership of this business and acknowledge his contributions.”
The New Power Segment represents Cummins’ investment in future technologies to deliver value and prosperity for its customers and communities, using materials and technologies that have less impact on the planet, the company says. New Power has quickly grown for Cummins, and in the past five years the company has developed and acquired significant capabilities in electrified powertrains, battery design and assembly, battery management, fuel cell and hydrogen generation.
Davis joined Cummins in 1994 and has held numerous roles in various divisions of the company. Since 2015, Davis has served as vice president of the Filtration business, where she achieved record revenues. Before that, she served as president of the Cummins Northeast distributor, where she also oversaw significant revenue and profit increases.
