The group plans to hire or redeploy an additional 3,000 BIM consultants, taking the total number of BIM consultants to over 7,000 across centres globally. This is the first in a series of global strategic portfolio announcements planned over the next two quarters, to mobilise all the Group’s disciplines, supported by a strong sales push.

To cater to the specific needs of key markets, we also offer sector-specific solutions for clients in banking and insurance, life sciences, energy & utilities, retail and consumer product, and telecoms sector.”
BIM is a key priority for businesses in the current economic climate. A report by AMR Research said companies would spend $59.3 billion on core business intelligence and performance management activities in 2010.
