If ENR Top 500 Design Firms are feeling the pinch from rising costs, it isn’t represented in their revenue totals—yet. Design firms overwhelmingly report that funding from the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act is already having a significant influence on company scope of programs with local and state agencies.
For the sixth consecutive year, total revenue for the Top 500-listed firms increased—rising 2.2% to $107.11 billion in 2021. Median firm revenue has also rebounded after a dip last year, rising 3.8%, to $67.45 million.
