L&T Technology Services Limited, a leading global pure-play engineering services company, has won a five-year, multi-million-dollar deal from European luxury vehicle maker BMW Group to provide high-end engineering services for the company’s suite of infotainment consoles targeted for its family of hybrid vehicles.

 

A listed subsidiary of Indian construction conglomerate Larsen & Toubro, LTTS is focused on engineering and research and development (ER&D) services. 

 

The India-based group offers consultancy, design, development and testing services across the product and process development life cycle. 

 

Its customer base includes 69 Fortune 500 companies and 57 of the world’s top ER&D companies, across industrial products, medical devices, transportation, telecom & hi-tech, and the process industries, said the company in a statement. 

 

The large deal was awarded to LTTS because of its deep domain expertise and engineering leadership in transportation technologies and its proven ability to offer unique opportunities to scale up existing projects and work on new ones, it stated. 

 

The LTTS team of engineers will be providing services in the areas of software build and integration, infotainment validation and defect management.

 

LTTS has an existing Near Shore Center which provides engineering and R&D services for BMW Group’s suite of infotainment consoles and its family of hybrid electric vehicles, said the statement. 

 

The proximity to BMW Group’s campus will enable LTTS’ engineers to work on a variety of solutions and offer services in real time.

 

On the contract win, Chief Operating Officer Abhishek Sinha said: "This latest deal win is a testament to LTTS’ long-standing expertise in the automotive engineering services domain. Our transportation engineering services are enabling leading OEMs to build innovative and sustainable vehicles and achieve faster time to market using new age digital technologies."
