2008 TOP DESIGN SURVEY
Welcome to McGraw-Hill
Construction Regional Publications: 2008 Top Design Survey. Each Regional
Publications is planning to publish its annual rankings of Top Design Firms
(including consultants, architects, engineers and other design professionals)
doing business in their region. The Top Design ranking will appear on each
regional web site for a full year.
Ranking Criteria: We will
rank firms based on total billings of design fees from projects in each region during
2007. We will also rank firms by total company-wide billings by various design
specialties and disciplines, and number of regional employees.
