We’re proud to see Plowman Craven CEO David Locker recognised by Business Minds Media for his leadership and vision in shaping the future of the geospatial and built environment sectors.
The feature highlights David’s forward-thinking approach to geospatial intelligence, digital asset management and technical innovation, and explores how Plowman Craven is building on more than 60 years of surveying expertise while continuing to embrace new technologies and ways of working.
Under David’s leadership, Plowman Craven has continued to evolve and expand internationally, with a growing presence across the UK, North America and Australia. At the same time, investment in areas including artificial intelligence, software development, automation and digital asset management is helping us turn increasingly complex geospatial data into reliable, actionable insight for our clients.
The article also reflects an important part of how Plowman Craven continues to grow: combining technological innovation with the knowledge and expertise of our people.
As an employee-owned business, investing in our teams, encouraging continuous learning and giving people the opportunity to help shape the future of the company remain central to our approach.
