The Success Story
As Peter Senge rightly said “Seeds do not contain the resources needed to grow a tree. These must come from the medium or environment within which the tree grows. But the seed does provide something that is crucial: A place where the whole of the tree starts to form. As resources such as water and nutrients are drawn in, the seed organizes the process that generates growth. In a sense, the seed is a gateway through which the future possibility of the living tree emerges.”
Similarly, it was not an easy task for SEED to outshine the existing competitors and withstand the market complexities during its initial stage. But, the experience of the Directorial board helped the company to address the client needs and convert every challenge into opportunity in order to climb the stairways of success. With a vision to bridge the gap in the field of Building Engineering and to positively impact the various parameters related to the design of MEP Engineering Services, SEED established itself as a one-of-its-kind brand. Also, the hard work, experience and perseverance of the project team during those initial budding years drove way to the future possibilities.
Apart from this, the mantra which has helped the company to prosper over the years and create a niche in its sector is:
Design- Every engineer at SEED is empowered to consider the smallest of details and their respective impacts at this level.
Integrate- This step influences the efficiency and economics of operation in the project. Promoting a blend of technology, keen observation and human experience enables seamless integration of each service into the system.
Sustain- At this level the company strives to transcend industry expectations by planning systems and technologies to last the test of time with a sole purpose to promote durability and sustainability in a project.
Today, the company is amongst the leading and trustworthy enterprises in its sector, providing tailored services which are successfully quenching customer requirements.
A Unique Consultancy
SEED is on a mission to offer deep technical insights to satisfy the owner, operator, and the customer underlining three key aspects of any project including:
COMFORT- The company manages the operations, using global standards of Ventilation and Thermal comfort along with the flexible and adaptable design.
CAPEX- The company offers financial analysis to facilitate informed CAPEX decision-making ideally classified or ordered according to capital outlay and ROI criteria along with improved care and long-term cost savings.
OPEX- SEED believes that energy savings of twenty percent (or greater) can be achieved through a technical review of plant equipment and operations and resulting implementation of energy conservation measures (ECMs).
Consistently Motivating Workforce is the Forte
