Mid-sized AEs Are Not Endangered, Says Survey of 35-Year ENR Top 500 Trends
The purported demise of midsize engineering and architecture firms may be premature, according to a new study of ENR Top 500 Design Firm list trends over a 35-year span by a team of academics and practitioners.
The analysis contends that firms with revenue between $17 and $113 million, while making up just 7% of total industry revenue in 2011, maintained or increased their numbers and market share in key sectors since the late 1970s.
