Engineering services outsourcing for global manufacturing

Digital manufacturing today runs on tightly integrated enterprise systems: enterprise resource planning (ERP) and product lifecycle management (PLM) for planning, computer-aided design (CAD) software for product design, and programmable CNC machines on the shop floor, all connected through 3D visualization, simulation, and analytics-based decision making. This integration is what lets manufacturers manage multiple global factories from one central location.

Standardized, repeatable engineering processes such as CAD migration, finite element analysis (FEA) meshing, and technical publishing are increasingly delivered through engineering services outsourcing. Infosys BPM combines deep domain expertise, a global delivery network, and a diverse engineering workforce, making it a preferred partner for engineering process outsourcing across the manufacturing value chain.

Infosys BPM with its knowledge and experience in the engineering domain, diverse workforce, and global presence, is the first choice for such collaborations.

  • Analyzing and resolving errors due to integration issues between PLM and ERP systems in a new product delivery process.
  • Administration (role assignment) of tasks in a new product delivery process
  • Perform transactions defined in workflow tasks worksheet to execute activities at different gates(Milestones) of new product development cycle(NPI)

Challenges and solutions - engineering services outsourcing

Engineering services outsourcing focuses specifically on core engineering workflows — product design data, PLM administration, technical documentation, and testing — rather than general IT infrastructure or software support, requiring providers with domain-specific engineering expertise.

Engineering process outsourcing for PLM typically includes production-level (L1/L2) support in PDM areas, data migration, system administration, and training material preparation, helping manufacturers keep PLM systems running smoothly without expanding in-house headcount.

Yes — engineering process support services extend to testing factory process support, including UI and functional testing, automated test execution and reporting, and maintenance of support and user manuals.

Manufacturers running multiple global plants benefit most, since engineering process outsourcing centralizes standardized, repeatable engineering tasks — freeing internal engineering teams to focus on core product design and innovation.
