KANSAS CITY, Missouri — Burns & McDonnell retains its No. 1 ranking in electrical Transmission and Distribution while ranking among the top 5 in three other Power categories in the widely watched annual ranking of Top 500 Design firms by Engineering News-Record (ENR) magazine. For the fourth consecutive year, Burns & McDonnell ranked No. 1 in the overall Power category.

The firm ranked among the top 20 firms in a total of 20 service categories, reflecting continued broad diversification into service specialties growing largely due to the need for major capital infrastructure investment.

Burns & McDonnell ranked No. 10 overall on this year’s ENR ranking of Top 500 Design Firms. The magazine bases its annual rankings of the 500 largest U.S.-based design firms on engineering and architectural design revenue earned in the prior fiscal year. Burns & McDonnell reported 2018 design revenue of $1.67 billion, compared with $1.47 billion the prior year.

“We don’t strive to be the biggest in any service specialty,” says Ray Kowalik, chairman and CEO, Burns & McDonnell. “Our focus is solving our customers’ problems with a quality product delivered safely, on time and at a good value. And we need to do that while also being customer-focused with all our work. We know growth will come from that customer focus.”

Burns & McDonnell specializes in Design-Build/Engineer-Procure-Construct (EPC) project delivery and this year moved up to No. 6 in the ENR ranking of Top 100 Design-Build firms.

In the ENR Sourcebook edition of Top 500 Design Firms, Burns & McDonnell posted particularly strong results in Telecommunications Towers, with a No. 3 ranking; Data Centers, with a No. 11 ranking; Food and Beverage facilities, with a best-ever No. 3 ranking; and Government Offices, with a best-ever No. 3 ranking.
