ENR Southwest's Sept. 6 print edition will feature the region's Top Specialty Contractors ranked by regional revenue and market sectors.

ENR Southwest has named Rosendin Electric its 2021 Specialty Contractor of the Year for its strong performance in the region during a challenging year, its dedication to fostering growth among its employees and its commitment to pushing technological innovation forward.

For its commitment to employees and culture, in addition to a strong portfolio of projects and record-breaking backlog, Haydon Building Corp. has been named ENR Southwest’s 2021 Contractor of the Year.

The annual list is compiled on the basis of contracting work done last year within the Southwest region, by firms with permanent offices in Arizona, Nevada or New Mexico.

Despite the challenges that 2020 brought with the COVID-19 pandemic and related slowdowns, Albuquerque-based Bohannan Huston Inc. was able to continue its growth, posting a 17.6% gain in regional revenue over 2019 figures. For both its success on the business front as well as its commitment to its employees, ENR Southwest has named BHI as its 2021 Design Firm of the Year.

Despite the pandemic, design revenues remained mostly steady across the region in 2020, although the full impact of the pandemic on future design and construction remains a question.

The city is managing several large civic and infrastructure projects that will enhance its traditional downtown area.

ENR Southwest is honored to name Albuquerque architect Van H. Gilbert as its 2020 Legacy Award winner.

ENR Southwest is pleased to name its 2021 class of Top Young Professionals. This annual awards program honors 20 individuals under 40 years of age in each of ENR's 10 regions who have shown extraordinary leadership and service throughout their careers.
