In the latest in-depth edition of our Think Tank Series podcast, supported by 3D Machine Control and Surveying specialist Leica Geosystems, Malcolm Dare, National Highways Executive Director of Commercial, Supply Chain and Procurement, talks Peter Haddock through a whole range of subjects, mapping out the future direction of the organisation.

They talk about:

• Delivering Net Zero by embracing innovations across the board.
• Tackling the skills shortage and attracting new talent.
• ESG and measuring social impact.
• Working collaboratively with supply chain partners and academics in research partnerships to deliver new materials and ways of working.
• The need to accelerate change by testing and trialling new solutions and ideas.
• The potential of technologies like the Cat Command Remote Control Station and autonomous drones.
• How carbon emissions can be reduced now and into the future using technologies like 3D machine control and switching to alternative fuels like Hydrogen.

And throughout the podcast, Malcolm signposts numerous standards and future roadmaps that are already documented whilst also mentioning the imminent publication of exciting future plans.

You might need to take notes on this podcast as there is so much information to take in over the 52 minute conversation.
