How we get the data

Data for our Giants 300 charts is based on information supplied by the respective firms. This year, we asked firms to verify the accuracy of their data.
Also new this year: separate charts for the top Architecture and Engineering firms, rather than lumping them together as “design firms.”
The Contractors chart (page 34) lists firms by their revenue for general contracting, design-build, CM at risk, and IPD—projects where all revenues flow through the contractor.

The CM Agent and PM chart (page 36) lists firms that derive their revenues through fees.
Please note: In subsequent charts for BIM, Government, Multifamily, etc., only data for Contractors (GC/DB/CM at risk/IPD) is presented in the issue.
Rankings of the leading CM Agent and PM firms in these categories can be found on our website, with other more detailed charts avaiable below.
And please print out our detailed Giants 300 Index at: www.BDCnetwork.com/giants300/2012/index. See how your firm ranks against the competition. +
