                                   Engineer-to-order  (ETO)  manufacturers  today,  especially  the  ones  in  growth  sectors  such  as
                                   energy and infrastructure are facing a formidable challenge. They are enjoying an increasing
                                   demand on the one hand, and are constrained by an inability to quickly increase engineering and
                                   production resources on the other. (It is also not prudent to make significant investments in new
                                   capacity because the boom might not last long enough for the investments to pay off).
