Role
Structural Engineer
Structural engineers are responsible for the design and maintenance of buildings, bridges, and other structures. They use a variety of engineering disciplines, such as mathematics, physics, and structural analysis, to understand how a given structure will behave under different conditions. Structural engineers often work with other professionals in the construction industry to ensure that the final product meets the required standards. The job is very closely related to that of a civil engineer.
There has been an increasing demand for technological advancements, remote work, and developments within the engineering and construction industry.
To match this expected growth, engineering and construction firms need to outsource to external service providers to keep employment expenses low without sacrificing quality. It's a good thing that a massive portion of engineering tasks can be completed online, which makes it highly convenient operating to an offshore environment.
Specifically, through The Lead Enquiry, our BPO partners’ structural engineers have in-depth knowledge and understanding of structural design & analysis, including preliminary and detailed design projects and technical standards. Moreover, these companies have rough ideas that are translated into a design that is advantageous to the client and the structural design also conforms to building codes and peer review.

Why You Should Outsource Structural Engineer Roles Offshore

Cost advantage
Outsourcing can save your business money by getting your daily repetitive tasks finished at a lower cost and at a higher quality as well. It can also significantly reduce your overhead costs from employment, office space, equipment, infrastructure and technology expenses as you no longer need to maintain an in-house space since outsourced staff can work offsite, pay offshore employees to work in those services, and streamline your own technology.
Save time
Outsourcing enables you to free up the hours you constantly spend on doing repetitive tasks and lets you allocate more time towards other, more profitable aspects.
