We had a quick chat to Simon about his work and the upcoming conference.

Tell us about your current role

Simon Vaux: I’m currently leading the long-term strategy to implement Digital Engineering (DE) within Transport. The resulting TfNSW DE Framework will provide a consistent approach to DE across the Transport cluster, through a program of strategic business transformation and industry collaboration.

What’s the most interesting project you’ve worked on?

SV: I’ve thoroughly enjoyed my current role leading the development of the DE Framework. This program is driving innovation and providing direction to industry, through a new, more holistic approach to DE. This will enable a step change in productivity and provide long-term benefits to our industry.

How would you sum up your approach to engineering in three words?

SV: Innovative, collaborative, strategic.

Why do you think conferences like RISK-PCC are important?

SV: Conferences like RISK-PCC provide an excellent opportunity to meet with business leaders and share innovative ideas about the future of our industry.

What are you most looking forward to at RISK-PCC?
