PSMJ Resources, Inc., the world’s leading authority on architecture, engineering, and construction firm management, announces the members of the 2024 Circle of Excellence. Sixty-nine exceptional architecture and engineering firms made it onto the exclusive list this year.

PSMJ designed the Circle of Excellence to highlight successfully managed firms that demonstrate outstanding achievements in areas such as profitability, overhead management, cash flow, productivity, business development, staff growth, and turnover. The Circle of Excellence represents the top 20 percent of participants in PSMJ’s annual A/E Financial Performance Benchmark Survey, based on 11 key performance metrics.

"The AEC Circle of Excellence is designed to recognize firms that are truly delivering high performance...not just superficial metrics like fast growth or simply size. The award-winning firms represent the best of the best in terms of financial and operational management,” says Gregory Hart, President of PSMJ Resources. “The top-performing firms achieve extraordinary performance by moving faster, executing better, and thinking bolder than the competition."
