Nissan also said its motor-sports-planning-and-development operations would be integrated into its engine and drive-train engineering divisions.
The I.T. departments, currently divided into business system and engineering units, will be amalgamated and will come under Nissan’s Chief Information Officer, Shozo Kurihara`s jurisdiction. And the company’s Nissan Marine Sales Co. is set to be renamed the Nissan Marine Co., absorbing all of Nissan’s marine-related operations on July 1st. Fifty workers are to be employed within this new company.
