Take 50% off the retail price for our 2026 Benchmark Data for those surveys in which you participate. The more you participate, the more you save!

Firms that participate value hard data and are more likely to benchmark their performance. The most profitable firms in the industry measure themselves against the best performers, a process that begins with entering data into a pool with peers.

You receive a FREE excel-based, interactive decision-making Benchmark Tool, embedded with key metrics gathered from peer AEC firms. Using your Benchmark Tool, you see where you stack up and what areas of your business you need to attack.

Built from your survey responses, this custom analysis identifies your top 1–2 profit levers across Direct Labor Multiplier, Utilization, and Overhead — showing where your firm outperforms peers, where you lag, and fixes to deliver the biggest impact. This analysis is FREE but only available if you particpate in our A/E Financial Performance Survey.

Getting the industry's most reliable data is great. Getting expert advice on how to apply it to your firm's toughest management challenges is even better. Participate now for your invitation to our upcoming LIVE Benchmark Intelligence Implementation Webinars, conducted by PSMJ's A/E management experts.

Participating in the A/E Financial Performance Survey is the ONLY way to be considered for PSMJ's annual AEC Circle of Excellence Award, the gold-standard recognition of superior management performance. Best of all, as a participant your firm's entry is completely FREE.
