Research and Transformation Interests Road Transport Management S ystem (RTMS )  Creating sustainable operations transformation toward low CO 2 emissions   S mart Transport Transformation Advocacy (influencing the influencers)  Building collaborative networks (KZN Heavy Vehicle Innovation Incubator)   RTMS -in-a-Box  EcoWarrior  eFridge  Kinetic Energy Recovery S ystem

Automotive Manufacturing in S outh Africa Rosslyn/ Pretoria • Nissan • Ford • BMW Durban • Toyota Eastern Cape • Mercedes • VW

Typical Car Carrier Configurations 6 car carrier (S emi trailer) 9 car carrier (rigid-drawbar)

Car Carrier Challenges • Increasing competition • Pressure for lower rates • Rising costs • Labour demands • Manufacturers “ commoditising” freight • Environmental concerns?

Early interventions  Road Transport Management S ystem (RTMS )  Vehicle specification  Trailer redesign  Electric Trailer  HCV car carrier  Electric car carrier for last mile

Results of the Relaxation 18.5/ 19.0 m to 18.5/ 19.5m H 4.6m  22.0/ 22.5 m to 22.0/ 23.0m x H 4.6m 

Car Carrier Optimisation S trategies  Extended asset lifespan  Operations Management Optimization  Vehicle S pecification Improvement  Fleet Management Choices  New Asset classes (PBS and HCVs)

Car Carriers V3.0 How do we radically alter the Car Carrier landscape  Is there opportunity for significant CO 2 emissions reduction with significant  ROI.

Piggy Back return leg 50% Reduction in number of carriers on the road on return leg • Reduces congestion, CO 2 emissions, CPK • (Capex is huuuge)

Experiments in social sciences suggest that: Tasks with high manual labour and low cognitive complexity, money can motivate  Tasks with complex cognitive function, money can be a disincentive!  Intrinsic motivation requires Autonomy, Mastery, and Purpose  (Candle experiment of Daniel Pink, author of Drive-The surprising truth about what motivates us)
