ENR Sourcebook Again Ranks Black & Veatch Among Global Leaders Across Telecom, Power, Water ServicesThe just-released list by Engineering News-Record once again reflects Black & Veatch's (News - Alert) leadership among global engineering, construction and consulting companies serving the power, water and telecommunications sectors. ENR's "Top 500 Design Firms" Sourcebook, which provides detailed rankings for nearly 50 specific market categories, ranks Black & Veatch among the Top 10 companies across 20 categories - from solar power and transmission and distribution, to water supply, wastewater treatment and telecommunications. Black & Veatch's Power business ranked second for solar power services and No. 5 in transmission and distribution, reflecting the power industry's continued exploration of renewable energy as a critical player in the power generation mix. With customers focused on integrated solutions to meet resilience and supply challenges, Black & Veatch's Water business was among the top 10 firms in water supply, water treatment and waste water treatment plants; ranked third for sanitary and storm water sewer services; and ranked fourth in hydro plants. Black & Veatch's Telecommunications business - which earned the company the No. 1 overall ranking for that industry in April's Top 500 Design Firms list - repeated that showing in the updated list while ranking second for towers and antennae as clients increasingly deploy high-speed/low latency public- and private-network broadband networks. "Demnd for integrated infrastructure services is growing, and our clients depend on us to deliver comprehensive solutions that connect the dots in our connected world," said Steve Edwards (News - Alert), Black & Veatch's Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. "These rankings say a lot about our leadership status in the markets we serve, but speak even louder about our professionals' knowledge, capabilities and commitment." Fueled by demand for Black & Veatch's diverse set of infrastructure services - including power generation and delivery, renewable energy, and water and wastewater treatment - the company placed 12th overall on the Top 500 list, and ranked first in telecommunications, second in power, and fifth in water.
