Awards were given in the categories of architecture, civil engineering, environmental, multidiscipline, surveying, and structural engineering.

“This program grows every year, and this year in addition to some newcomers we had a number of firms who improved their ranking on the list.  It is wonderful to see the impact this designation can make in further bolstering workplace culture, aiding recruiting efforts, and improving the ability of a firm to get new work!” said Christina Zweig, marketing director, Zweig Group.
