Save Earth, It Saves You.
For factories, technology campuses, offices and residential communities — measured on site, reported plainly, and signed by the engineer who did the work.
The same discipline, whichever audit or assessment you need.

Services
Itihas audits, assesses, designs and certifies. It does not supply equipment or execute the works it recommends, so every finding stands on its own.
Where the money goes, and where 10–30% of it can be recovered.
Type I and Type II audits per BEE guidelines and the EC Act 2001 — consumption baseline, utility bill analysis, equipment-level efficiency, ECM identification and a DPR with ROI-ranked payback.
Chiller efficiency (kW/TR), AHU and pump performance, cooling tower approach, chilled-water reset opportunity and BMS control review — usually the largest single saving in any facility.
Leak survey and quantification, pressure optimisation, specific power (kW/CFM) benchmarking, storage and control assessment — the most expensive utility in most plants and the least measured.
Combustion efficiency, flue-gas analysis, steam-trap survey, insulation losses, condensate recovery and distribution assessment to the UNIDO steam system optimisation method.
Water balance, consumption benchmarking, leak detection, treatment plant performance, recycling and reuse potential, and specific energy of the water system.
Lux survey against IS 3646 and NBC, lighting power density assessment, retrofit opportunity, controls and daylight integration.
From the 132 / 11 kV transformers down to the last distribution board — condition, safety and remaining life.
HT/LT panels, transformers, switchgear, busbars, earthing, lightning protection, DG sets, UPS and cabling assessed against CEA Regulations 2023, NBC 2016, IS 732 and IS 3043 — risk-rated findings and a corrective action plan.
Campus-wide or plant-wide assessment of transformers, HT and LT switchgear, ACBs, MCCBs, APFC panels, cables and DBs — IR, oil, earth, thermography and load measurements, a condition score out of 100 for every asset, remaining useful life and a retain / repair / plan-replacement / replace-on-priority verdict with budgetary estimates.
Power factor, harmonic distortion (THD), voltage unbalance, flicker and transients logged on site. Includes kVAh billing reconciliation, kVARh penalty audit and APFC / filter design recommendations.
Incident energy analysis per IEEE 1584 with PPE classification per NFPA 70E — arcing current, arc-flash boundary, equipment labels, and protection-setting optimisation to reduce the hazard at source.
Infrared inspection of panels, joints, terminations, busbars, motors and mechanical assets under load — ΔT severity classification, root cause and a prioritised rectification schedule.
Earth resistance measurement, electrode and conductor condition, bonding continuity and lightning protection adequacy against IS 3043 and IS/IEC 62305.
Stage inspection and witness of FAT / SAT for panels, transformers and cables at vendor works and site; root-cause reports for transformer, motor, cable and switchgear failures for warranty, insurance and management.
Statutory obligations verified, gaps registered, certificates issued where the law allows a Chartered Engineer to issue them.
Systematic occupational safety audit — HIRA, statutory register verification, emergency preparedness, PPE compliance and a time-bound improvement roadmap.
Detection and alarm, hydrants, sprinklers, extinguisher adequacy and servicing, means of escape, compartmentation, signage and evacuation readiness against NBC 2016 and State Fire Service requirements.
Electrical, fire and safety statutory obligations — CEIG approvals, Factories Act registrations, test certificates, licences and periodic inspection records — with a documented gap register.
Site verification of imported capital goods against the EPCG licence and issue of the Chartered Engineer's Installation Certificate for DGFT — machine-wise make, model and serial number, location, power connection and commissioning status, with photographs and an installation report.
Chartered Engineer certificate for Customs on imported or second-hand machinery — identification, year of manufacture, condition and residual life — for clearance and valuation purposes.
Practical programmes for testing, commissioning and maintenance teams — LOTO, absence-of-voltage testing, permit-to-work, arc-flash awareness, stored-energy hazards — with rotating hands-on stations, assessment and certificates.
For owners, occupiers, investors and residents' associations — what the building is worth, what it needs, and what it will cost.
Pre-acquisition and pre-lease assessment for investors, banks and occupiers — physical asset condition, remaining useful life, capex forecast, statutory status and a risk narrative for the investment decision.
Handover / takeover assessment of civil, electrical, mechanical, HVAC, fire and utility systems during ownership or management transition — for residential gated communities, offices and factories — snag list, asset register, condition grading and recommended capex.
Fair market value of tenant fit-outs — civil, plumbing, painting and interiors — and installed assets such as kitchen equipment, furniture, electrical appliances and safety equipment, at lease exit, handover, takeover or dispute — physical verification, BOQ quantity check, prevailing market rates, depreciation and a valuation certificate under the Chartered Engineer's seal.
Assessment against the Energy Conservation & Sustainable Building Code 2024 — envelope, HVAC, lighting power density, service water heating and the new provisions on embodied carbon, life-cycle resource efficiency and material circularity.
IGBC and LEED readiness assessment, pre-certification gap analysis and documentation support for new and existing buildings, by an IGBC Accredited Professional.
ESG baseline, materiality mapping, Scope 1/2/3 emissions accounting and sustainability report preparation aligned to GRI, SEBI BRSR and CDP.
Plant and equipment effectiveness — OEE, maintenance practice maturity, utility system performance and benchmarking against industry practice, with a practical improvement roadmap.
Engineering under the Chartered Engineer's seal — designs you can build from, certificates authorities accept, and verification that settles disputes.
Complete electrical design from the HT intake to the last DB — load validation and load schedules, substation sizing and transformer selection, DG and UPS integration, protection and coordination, panel schedules, SLD pack (PDF and DWG), construction BOQ and a signed engineering report — plus review of vendor designs for adequacy before finalisation.
Independent measurement and rate certification of contractor bills for owners, corporates and residents' associations — executed quantities against the BOQ, rate reasonableness, and a certified statement for release of payment.
Chartered Engineer's opinion for arbitration, consumer forum and civil matters — quality of work executed, cause of failure, and quantum of loss — evidence-based and fit for submission.

Why an independent engineer
Itihas does not supply equipment and does not execute the remediation it recommends. Every observation is measured, every recommendation is ranked by return, and every report is signed by the engineer who did the work.

Managing Partner, Itihas Engineering Services
23+ years across energy management, facility operations and statutory compliance — 100+ audits and assessments across ten sectors, with earlier career experience at CBRE, JLL, Sodexo and Wipro Eco Energy managing large corporate and industrial facilities. Member of the Institution of Engineers (India) and FTCCI.
About the engineer
Every audit is performed and signed by a certified professional who has spent his career running the systems he now audits — HVAC plants, HT/LT distribution, DG sets and critical infrastructure — across manufacturing, IT/ITES, healthcare, education, real estate and institutional facilities.
Knowledge
Incident energy depends less on fault current than on how long the upstream breaker takes to clear. Why a settings review often matters more than new PPE.
Motors, compressed air, lighting, HVAC and furnaces are 75% of factory consumption. Where the 10–30% hides.
Age alone is not a verdict. How a condition score that weighs spares availability and OEM support alongside test results gives a defensible answer.
SEBI's BRSR for the top 1000 listed companies — material topics, Scope 1/2/3 and supply-chain disclosures.
VFDs and non-linear loads inject harmonics that overheat transformers and trip breakers. Diagnose before it costs.
Envelope U-values, HVAC COP, lighting LPD and SHW for buildings above 500 sqm — what builders need to know.
