The entire management staff at Dynatek will remain untouched, and the company will maintain its name, branding, and headquarters. MortgageHub said it will add additional sales people to Dynatek's staff and invest considerable research and development funds to speed up the rollout of Titanium, an update of Dynatek's core system that the company has been phasing in over the past year.
