That is an uncharitable interpretation, IMO.
The CFO heard of a novel technique used by his peers in other companies, and they reported good results. He wants to try it within his organization too.

Jokes aside, if in 15 years you have worked with only few good Indian engineers, you probably have not yet worked at places with high talent density. I could understand if you had said you have (a) worked with many low quality engineers from India, or (b) worked with far more low quality engineers from India than high quality ones. But if, in absolute numbers, you haven't come across many good engineers from India, I can only infer than you probably haven't worked with very good engineers across the board.
A newspaper ran a contest to write prose in the style of Graham Greene. Greene sent in the opening two paragraphs of an unfinished work. He came in _second_ in the contest. Many years later, Greene sent in an entry to a similar contest. This time he didn’t win any prizes but got an honorable mention from the judges.
