MIDDLE EAST from labor to supervisory and board level . The Middle East countries have small populations , and to supplement the indigenous population they naturally employ people from the subcontinent .”
Though India still retains its low-cost advantage , there are many other compelling reasons why KBR has chosen to establish technology centers there . Among the requirements sourced from India are engineering and procurement services , construction labor , construction supervision , technology , licensing , chemical sales , equipment manufacturing , specialty items and many others .
“ We do all these things out of India because it is a very competitive country , a largely Englishspeaking market , and has a legal system based on English law .” And in order to avoid any short term supply side constraints KBR has deliberately chosen diverse locations , at present Pune in the west , Chennai in the east and Delhi in the north .
