The Zweig Letter Announces A/E Hot Firm List
Management consulting and research firm Zweig White Information Services has identified the 100 fastest-growing U.S. architecture, engineering and environmental consulting firms for its annual ranking, The Zweig Letter Hot Firm List. This annual list features the design and environmental firms that have outperformed the economy and competitors to become industry leaders.
Environmental firm Compass Environmental, Inc. earned the number-one spot on the 2006 list. Compass and this year’s other Hot Firms will be recognized at a special reception at The Zweig Letter Hot Firm Celebration & Conference, to be held October 25-27, 2006, in San Francisco.
The list is based solely on gross revenue for both fiscal year 2002 and fiscal year 2005. Firms were ranked from first to last based on percentage growth and dollar growth. Dollar growth and percentage growth were weighted equally to give both small and large firms an opportunity to make the list. Each firm’s two rankings were added together, and the 100 firms with the lowest combined rankings comprise the list.
