The frantic developments in India have put the country on a rolling wheel of prosperity. We have come a long way from just mud and clay to safety regulations to mobile devices and motorized vehicles. The innovations in the engineering industry have made a world of difference; setting new milestones and continuing to progress remarkably. Certainly, even today, every aspect of construction demands the highest levels of standards, safety, and reliability, and the Mechanical, Electrical, and Plumbing services remain the crux of well-built structures and complexes. But who puts together unique MEP blueprints with a simplified approach and cost effective solution to a flawless project? Indeed, the credit goes to the engineering contractors and consultants who showcase state-of-the-art expertise, time-boundedness and quality delivered with best practices or strategies.

These industry oracles join hands with construction panjandrums and proactively execute procedures and principles at every stage of the project cycle, thus creating a win-win situation for efficient project deliveries. Among such players, Shankar Electricals Services (India) Pvt Ltd (SESIPL) is one that stands out from the rest, in terms of its quality, cost-effectiveness, credibility, and merit. What makes Seed Engineering more special is the vision of being a one-stop solution provider of full-spectrum electrical services including manpower; while adhering to sustainability. Today, SESIPL is marching forward as a top-notch Electrical Contracting and Engineering company.

"SESIPL pledges Quality, Reliability, Safety, Assurance, and Costeffectiveness and is completely focused on the liability of customers"

The Bangalore-based firm is broadly operating in two verticals: First being the operational and maintenance vertical, the company provides complete asset management and facility management through Electro-mechanical services. “We offer the utmost technical assistance in the area of operations and maintenance for electrical systems, and help our customers keep the company running and profit without excess costs. We recruit ITI, diploma, and engineering graduates for leading institutes to the team and ensure that they are in line with the latest technologies and adding on capabilities to help the customers in passing on their best knowledge. Post hiring, we also have our own professional training academy that offers extensive skillbased training towards electro mechanical installation", the founder Rajesh Shetty mentions.

The second vertical of the business is focused on carrying out complete MEP solutions. “With the focus of providing reliable and uninterrupted electricity operation, our core business has been in electrical projects in IT Park data centers. In the last two decades, we have provided employment opportunities to thousands of talents and have successfully executed nearly 100 million square feet of electrical infrastructure projects in both the high side of the power distribution system and the low side of electrical works in various sectors", he says.

The company has a powerful core team with accumulated experience in various geographies, sectors, and types of projects. Its members are directly involved as project directors or overseers in all projects, thereby ensuring knowledge transfer to the ground teams.

This in turn provides quality workmanship at our client premises".

He further adds, “The second value proposition is that we are equipped with a
complete digitization process; our designer works with the latest BIM and Revit model which enhances the the accuracy of the quantity of raw materials consumption. Safety is the biggest parameter that our firm believes in and doesn't compromise at any cost. The procurement process has been completely driven by the ERP system, to ensure that the project is delivered on time. Apart from this, we are different from other players in terms of a dedicated offering called mobile engineering services (MES) through which we deploy trained staff (whom we call task force teams) in centers across the cities.
