think 3 and BWIR sign letter of understanding on Engineering Services

Barry-Wehmiller International Resources (BWIR) and think3 have signed a letter of understanding to provide engineering services worldwide from their competence centers based in India.

Think3 defined yesterday the plan to transition its Indian engineering services operations to BWIR, part of the $1.1 billion Barry-Wehmiller Companies, Inc. based out of St. Louis, Missouri, USA.  BWIR is headquartered in the U.S. with primary operations in Chennai, India, and Mumbai, India.

Beyond the transition of think3’s Engineering Services Division to BWIR, we look forward to pursing opportunities in which the synergy between think3 and BWIR will provide greater resource capabilities to meet our global strategic objectives,” commented Filippo Zuccarello, CEO of think3.

Similar to think3, BWIR has been a pioneer in the engineering services space for more than a decade and offers a breadth of services ranging from CAD services, controls engineering, engineering automation and sourcing of components, including manufacturing consulting.  Through this new organizational model, think3 customers will obtain the same quality of service, along with a wider range of services suitable for a manufacturing company. 

“Think3’s Engineering Services Division is a perfect complement to BWIR on multiple fronts,stated Senthilkumar Deivasigamany, senior partner of BWIR.  “The type of customers, the model of developing long-term annuity relationships with dedicated teams, and the nature of the work are all a strong fit, which we believe will prove mutually beneficial to our customers as well as our engineering professionals. In addition, BWIR’s people-centric leadership culture will provide a continuity of professional development opportunities for the think3 professionals that join BWIR in Chennai”.
