2010 Top 40 Electrical Design Firms Table
Notwithstanding an injection of federal funding for public works construction through the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA) of 2009, the U.S. construction market remained soft in 2009. Plagued by tighter credit standards and budget shortfalls, many owners and developers delayed or canceled major projects. Although the electrical design firms on EC&M's 2010 Top 40 list reported $18.3 billion in overall design services revenue, of the 31 firms present on last year's list, 19 suffered year-over-year decreases in overall design revenue.
