Interview with Daniel V\u00e1zquez in the Special Supplement<\/a> of El Observador for UTE\u2019s 110th anniversary.<\/p>\n

Founded in 1998 by engineer Omar Braga, Ingener has become Uruguay\u2019s largest electrical infrastructure construction company.<\/p>\n

His vision was that once installations were completed, the operating period began, and sometimes there were no resources prepared to maintain certain energy installations throughout their useful life. A successful model.<\/p>\n

But the company also began generating work during slack periods. Construction projects have intense periods, after which the workload drops significantly. The aim was therefore to provide continuity to highly qualified people who had worked on the projects, so that they could keep developing their skills.<\/p>\n

\u201cBased on that concept, we began building a very strong technical team from an electrical engineering standpoint,\u201d explained engineer Daniel V\u00e1zquez, the company\u2019s current President and CEO, referring to the strengths that made Ingener a leader in our country.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt was quite natural to move from service and maintenance tasks\u2014which remain a pillar of the company\u2014to carrying out the works directly. And in the energy world, UTE is obviously a natural client for this kind of infrastructure work. The reality is that our company has grown with UTE. It has allowed us to consolidate our technical team. The emergence of renewable energy certainly contributed greatly to our development. Although many projects were for private companies, the end client is UTE itself,\u201d he noted.<\/p>\n

With 100% national resources, Ingener has established itself at home and abroad as an expert turnkey company in engineering, construction, commissioning, and operation and maintenance services for the energy, industrial and services sectors.<\/p>\n

\u201cAll the experience we gained working with UTE in every respect allowed us to go further and work abroad as a Uruguayan company. When Uruguay completed its renewable energy investment cycle, Argentina\u2014which was somewhat behind\u2014embarked on that path. We went there with all our experience, we took that step and it went very well,\u201d added Daniel V\u00e1zquez.<\/p>\n

That first step provided a firm foothold in other countries, and Ingener now has strong operations in Paraguay and Bolivia. \u201cAll of them linked to energy projects,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n

Today, with this international presence, Ingener moves people and talented technicians from one country to another to optimize the projects it delivers for its clients, wherever they are.<\/p>\n

\u201cIngener has achieved a sound workload across the whole region. This keeps alive the DNA our founder, Omar Braga, left us: covering those slack periods, always within a close-knit environment,\u201d he emphasized.<\/p>\n

The reputation the company has built in the region, together with its highly qualified technical team, now allows it to enter another very interesting field: exporting engineering. \u201cWe got here thanks to the know-how acquired through our projects with UTE. It is a smaller team of engineers who work by interpreting what the client wants once they receive the information,\u201d he explained.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe continue to apply the principle of \u2018accelerating through the curves\u2019 as our growth philosophy, just as Omar Braga taught us.\u201d<\/p><\/div>\n
