Mick Slattery has left 8612 Conduent Transportation after just 10 months as CEO.

The company said he made the decision for ‘personal reasons’. Slattery “has decided to leave Conduent to pursue other opportunities outside of the transportation industry”, the firm said in a statement. “An internal and external search is underway for a successor.”

He joined the company in August 2018 after a career in management consultancy with an emphasis on technology and digital. Speaking to 1846 ITS International earlier this year, he said: “I am not a career transportation person. I am new to this industry…At my core I’ve spent my career creating and launching new opportunities for clients that are tech-based.”

“The company’s leadership thanks Mick for his contributions and strong leadership and wishes him the best in his future endeavours,” Conduent added.

The interim CEO is John Peracchio – who only joined the company in November last year as general manager of mobility solutions and strategy. Peracchio has 30 years’ experience in transportation and chairs the Michigan Council on Future Mobility. He is also on the steering committee of 560 ITS America's Mobility On Demand Alliance.

    Autonomous vehicles (AVs) could have value as the mainstay of inner city transport networks in future. “It’s pure speculation, but we are likely to see more segregated road networks,” said Chris Hayhurst, European consulting manager at MathWorks. For example, level 5 (completely driverless) AVs could simply be used to pick up and drop off people in the centre of a town. “In an inner city where there are no conventional cars at all it could have huge value,” he added.
