Key Trends in the Market
 

The competitive landscape for architecture, engineering and environmental services companies continues to evolve amid heightened M&A activity, talent shortages and globalization. Here are a few trends we are watching in the market:

  • The Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act (IIJA) will have a significant impact on firms well positioned in the infrastructure services market, influencing the behavior of both buyers and sellers for the coming years.
  • International design, engineering and environmental firms are accelerating expansion into the U.S. due to the relatively stable long-term growth opportunities.
  • The industry continues to see momentum in the convergence of design and construction, encouraging leaders to assess how to maintain their competitive advantage amid this shift toward an integrated delivery model.
  • Talent remains scarce, so firm leaders are prioritizing how to attract and retain skilled employees, and how those efforts will shape their growth strategies.
  • Environmental firms must navigate a changing regulatory environment and position themselves in areas with the most favorable demand drivers and funding sources.
  • The industry is witnessing accelerating technological advancement and innovation. Leaders are increasingly driven to modernize, but often struggle to know how, where and when to invest in technology.
