The 10 Most Prominent Engineering Consultants in 2018

5) What is the current scenario of Engineering
Consultation industry, from your point of view?
In a developing country, the key to growing at a higher rate
lies in the ability to create world-class infrastructure.
Infrastructure development has contributed lot in GDP
growth of India. Now Indian consulting companies and
professionals have gained rich experience using latest
technology. Indian consulting companies are now actively
participating in third world countries including African
sub-continent, South east Asia and other part of world.
Indian consulting companies have observed more fast
growth in other countries during last one decade. Our
biggest strength will remain experienced professional
manpower ready to take challenge in any part of world. I
feel, consulting industry will keep excelling at international
level in future. Unlike few year ago when we were looking
to bring international consulting companies to India for
better technology, now we are in the position to provide our
know how to others which is at par with International
standard.
Present perks and salaries offered within India is
continuously attracting many Indian professionals to come
back to home country, who have spent considerable time
abroad working in International culture and got varied
exposure with technology.
I strongly feel, Indian consulting companies will keep
growing their business within India and at international
level.
6) With the massive advancements in the Engineering
industry, what are the opportunities and challenges
evolving with it?
Infrastructure industry in India is with full of opportunities.
We still to go in long way to strengthen our infrastructure
especially in Road, Rail, Metro, Airport, Power, Water
resources etc. Infrastructure is an area where there lies huge
opportunity, which can be tapped by evolving an integrated
development programs within different sectors and regions.
There is a need for some radical decision-making and good
project development. We still face several challenges such
as the delayed project completion, cost overrun, land
acquisition problems, lack of coordination between multiple
stakeholders in the infrastructure sector, lengthy document
processing time, lack of Clarity and procedure in resolving
Environmental issues etc. We need strong political stable
polices for smooth and faster development. Today’s
infrastructure is under intense pressure to operate at the
speed of development - that means being infused with the
agility to adapt as quickly as customers and the market
demand. We also need to run continuous training and
capacity building programs for all stake holders involved in
developmental activities. No developing country can afford
to waste a small money by creating inferior quality of
infrastructure where we need more attention so that each
and every rupee spent contributes to nation development.
By having involvement of good consulting companies,
responsibility of quality issues can be addressed.
7) What are the benefits gained by your clients while
doing business with you?

them, and our other stakeholders, to build trust in society.
8) What is the role of your employees behind your
consultancy’s success? How do you keep them

thoughts endlessly. Believe in yourself and also let others
grow with you. Every person you meet is game changer and
