2011 Top 40 Electrical Design Firms Table
While the recession officially ended in June 2009, recovery in the construction industry has been more gradual than the rate of expansion in the general economy. To offset soft domestic markets, many electrical design firms expanded their key areas of expertise beyond design, including construction and energy management, and also extended their reach beyond the country’s borders. In addition, they became literate in building information modeling (BIM) software and certification requirements for green buildings. As a result, in answer to a proprietary EC&M survey, the companies on EC&M’s 2011 Top 40 Design Firms list reported $16.9 billion in overall design services revenue in 2010.
