Engineering consulting and plant lifecycle services for industrial sectors
ECI Group is a multi-disciplined engineering consultancy built on 145 years of combined expertise across three operating entities (ECI, Simon Carves, ITEC). The tech stack reveals a hybrid modernization effort: legacy ERP (SAP, Oracle) and trading systems (Endur) paired with cloud-native tooling (Azure, React, Python, Databricks). Active projects show a strategic shift toward cloud migration—moving Endur screens to external applications and building new ETRM solutions on Azure—while internal pain points center on automating legacy workflows and handling high-volume streaming data, suggesting engineering teams are straddling on-premises process engineering with data-intensive cloud workloads.
ECI Group delivers design, engineering, procurement, construction management, and technical staffing services to industrial operators globally across energy, chemicals, polymers, and related sectors. The company spans plant lifecycle work from conceptual design through detailed engineering and large-scale project execution, as well as a professional services division (PTS) that staffs engineering and operations personnel. Headquartered in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, the firm operates across the United States with a 51–200-person team structured primarily around engineering disciplines (mechanical, electrical, civil, process, controls) and emerging digital capabilities.
SAP and Oracle Database for ERP; Endur for energy trading; Azure, React, Python, and Node.js for cloud and application development; Informatica and Databricks for data integration and pipeline work.
Cloud migration of energy trading systems (moving Endur screens to cloud, building ETRM on Azure), system transformation projects, equipment inspection automation, and pre-startup safety review processes.
