Given that this year's Top Specialty Contractors ranking reflects the revenue decline that general contractors have experienced, it's heartening to hear an official at one top 10 subcontractor declare that he is still “bullish” about opportunities in California.
The top spot in the list again goes to EMCOR Group Inc., whose California revenue fell 7% in 2010 to $744.41 million, from $800.55 million in 2009. The Norwalk, Conn., company reported $5.1 billion in worldwide 2010 revenue, and it is busy winning contracts all over California, thanks to its army of mechanical and electrical subsidiaries.
