Fit-for-future quarrying
Dr. Paul Sutton
The Institute of Quarrying New Zealand’s Fit for Futures Research Project aims to predict the trends that will impact the quarrying industry in New Zealand. The desired impact is a quarrying sector with the leadership and strategic foresight to reimagine a quarrying industry that continues to provide the foundations for the construction and infrastructure sectors. Furthermore, predicting these trends will support the quarrying industry and key stakeholders in guiding quarrying practice, informing vocational training, and guiding strategic policy directions across the government, the quarrying industry, its suppliers, and stakeholders.
The following questions guided the Institute of Quarrying New Zealand’s Futures Research Project:
- What are the possible futures of the New Zealand Industry by 2030?
- What are the drivers of the future that will impact the future of the New Zealand Quarrying Industry by 2030?
- What recommendations must be actioned by the New Zealand Quarrying Industry to address these drivers by 2030?
