PSMJ Resources Inc. Announces 2011 Circle of Excellence

   The list reflects the outstanding financial performance of 45 top A/E industry firms.

Newton, MA—PSMJ Resources, Inc., the premier management consulting firm for the A/E/C (architecture/engineering/construction) industries, today published its annual PSMJ Circle of Excellence for 2011.

The 2011 PSMJ Circle of Excellence is determined by weighting each firm’s ranking in the overall 2011 PSMJ A/E Financial Performance Benchmark Survey with respect to 13 individual benchmarks. These benchmarks are indicative of performance in the various aspects of business operations, including cash flow, overhead control, business development, project performance, staff utilization, and overall profitability.

“The PSMJ Circle of Excellence is not determined by firm revenue, profitability, staff growth, or sheer size – nor is it determined by any subjective criteria. The 13 benchmarks that determine the PSMJ Circle of Excellence were chosen to reflect that the firms are well-managed, have a strong client base, and are led in a responsible and sustainable manner. PSMJ believes that clients prefer to work with well-run firms because they are more likely to provide superior service and value,” explains H.E. “Dan” Daniels, PSMJ’s survey editor.

The 2011 PSMJ Circle of Excellence reflects the performance of 48 participating design firms, 45 of which have agreed to have their names published.

They are as follows:
