Of The $750 Billion Global Engineering-Services Market Today, Only About $10-$15 Billion Is Offshored According to a New Survey

DUBLIN, Ireland--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/reports/c82050) has announced the addition of Top Engineering Services Outsourcing Vendors, Black Book Survey 2007 Results to their offering.

Outsourced engineering services is one such space where Indian companies have begun to make a mark, successfully using the skill-sets, tools and experience from IT software and services, to evolve from providing basic data conversion, through 2D and 3D CAD/CAM/CAE, advanced simulation, prototyping, testing, PLM, product design (engineering), process engineering, plant automation and asset management services. Though most of the initial players in the segment have emerged from legacy IT services businesses, today the segment has matured with several of these firms having established an independent engineering services practice.

Full Service ESO Rankings and Results Includes:

- Engineering Services Outsourcing

- Design, Mechanical & Manufacturing Engineering

- Plant Automation & Enterprise Asset Management

- Electrical & Electronics Engineering

- Advanced Simulations, Prototyping, Styling & Testing

Over 130 Engineering Services Outsourcing suppliers globally were included in the Black Book client survey process from 17 countries.

THE TOP 20 SURVEY-QUALIFIED ESO VENDORS, 2007 [in Alphabetical Order]: EASi, Eicher, Entegee, eServ Perot, Geometric, HCL Technologies, Hero Global Design, Hoyt Engineering, Infosys, Mahindra Engineering, NeilSoft, Onward Tech, Patni, Plexion, QuEST, Ranal, Rolta, Satyam, Tata Group and Wipro

The potential for process engineering, plant automation and enterprise asset management services lies relatively unexamined. Industry estimates peg the market potential for process engineering, asset management and industrial embedded systems at over $5 bn taking the total outsourced/offshore market potential to approximately $12 bn. This estimate takes into account the outsourcing opportunity that would arise from mechanical engineering design, construction engineering design, electrical engineering design, embedded systems and chip design, instrumentation and controls design, manufacturing and tool design, industrial design, product lifecycle management (PLM) and software product engineering.

Of the $750 billion global engineering-services market today, only about $10-$15 billion is offshored. India accounts for about 12% of the total offshore market, that is somewhere between $1.2 billion-$1.8 billion. This could go up to $40 billion by 2020.

This implies an increase in India's share to approximately 20%-25% of the total offshored market, which is likely to grow to $150-$250 billion by that time. Offshore engineering services is one area where India does not have a dominant market share, unlike most other offshore services segments and sub-segments.
