Engineering services industry is undergoing a period of turbulent change, witnessing a spurt of growth and innovation. The market value of the industry, currently standing at around $1.67 trillion, is projected to grow to over $2 trillion by 2029. The expansion is driven by various factors, among which significant investments in infrastructure, particularly in North America and Asia, play a significant role. Areas include energy, petrochemicals, and infrastructure investments in the emerging Asian markets such as India and China. On the other hand, within the positive perspective of growth, the engineering services sector is confronted with multiple barriers that need smart solutions.
One of the key issues for the engineering services market is to improve the efficiency of project management. As the projects get more complicated and intricate, the smooth coordination and completion becomes one of the problems for engineering companies to address. It is important that effective risk management strategies are in place as well, for the projects may face uncertainties and unexpected challenges which may result in delays or budget overruns. Moreover, there is a generational gap in the workforce as experienced workers retire while there is a deficit of young talent who are equipped with the appropriate skills, especially in specific areas such as Primavera utilization and interface management.
These challenges are being addressed by Indo Pacific Management Consultants (IPMC). IPMC is an entity of prominent professionals in fields such as oil and gas, petrochemicals, utilities, and pharmaceuticals with impressive international projects portfolio. Based in Singapore, IPMC strives to serve Southeast Asia and India, which are the regions where it has managed to be an accredited partner in project management.

The USP of IPMC is comprised of several components that provide the company with competitive edge in the market. IPMC is a leader in developing sound execution plans, propelled by the backbone of an accurate benchmarking apparatus and a comprehensive review process which entails a ‘cold eyes’ approach. “This unique feature allows IPMC to pick up improvement ways and handle problems at the early stage, thus ensuring the success of the project with client satisfaction,” says Manoj Srivastava, CEO, IPMC.

On top of the above, IPMC engages in the third-party evaluations (cold eyes assessments) of projects, which are a great boon, as they offer opinions from unbiased sources, thus unveiling blind spots and reducing risks.
