Market Sectors
The transport technology landscape is always changing. We aim to be responsive to market needs and opportunities as technologies emerge.
Transport Operators
Our skills and experience are well suited to being able to assist commercial vehicle operators in the public transport and logistics industries. Whether it be undertaking feasibility studies of proposed innovations and any regulatory impacts, to addressing operational challenges, we can assist with the advice and management required to address your needs.
Fleet Risk
There is increasing realisation amongst employers that their obligation to provide a safe workplace also extends to the vehicles that employees use in the course of their duties. With the increasing capability and complexity of new cars, alongside the distraction effect of always-connected workplaces brought about by the smartphone, the scope for OH&S risks to emerge has increased.
Our expertise is also relevant to private vehicle fleet risk taken on by insurers. The accelerating market penetration of advanced technology in new vehicles and the increasing reliability of old ones means that private fleet has never been more diverse, with a commensurate increase in the variety of risks requiring management.
Automated Driving System Entities and related suppliers
As of 2024, government regulators are developing the rules that will govern the playing field in which automated vehicles will operate. Entities intending to operate vehicles capable of automated operation will be running along a path so far uncharted in Australia. We have the technical understanding, the established safety principles, and the existing relationships in order to address challenges as they arise, maximising the chances of success.
Governments and Regulators
Governments have the challenging task of managing the present while preparing for the future in a world where technological change is rapid and unpredictable. Whether it be uplifting the safety capabilities of the existing vehicle fleet, or setting new regulations to maximise the community benefits of emerging technology, we have the technical knowledge from first principles to provide advice and manage outcomes for our clients.
Individuals
While we are experts in all elements of the road transport system, we are drivers first, and therefore acutely understand the changing landscape within which drivers are expected to perform safely. Fundamentally, we can empathise with drivers on how the complex road system can make simple mistakes turn into grave consequences under specific circumstances.
We are well placed to impassionately analyse any given incident and identify causal factors from all system elements, be they the infrastructure, vehicle or road user, to ensure that legal avenues following unfortunate incidents result in the fairest outcome.
