Engineering News Record names WSB a Top Design Firm

Engineering News Record (ENR) named WSB a Top 500 Design Firm, a list that ranks the 500 largest U.S.-based design firms, both publicly and privately held. Our firm held steady from last year at #213 on the 2019 list.

ENR performs annual surveys of its key segments, ranking companies that are engaged in general contracting, specialty contracting, engineering, architecture, environmental services, among other specialties. The rankings are based on annual revenue within the U.S. and internationally. ENR Top Design Firms list is based on design-specific revenue and is released annually in April.

This year, CEO Bret Weiss was featured offering his insights on value-based cost, diversity and inclusion, and the robot revolution in ENR’s cover story.

WSB Redefined

Forging ahead with a new brand.

We’re excited to officially launch the new branding of WSB. Sure, there’s a new logo, but it’s much more than that.  It represents the sum of all things WSB – our work, our people, our process – as well as how we look and sound.

Since 1995, we’ve dedicated ourselves to the value of strong relationships, collaboration and forward-thinking ideas. We’ve inspired each other and been inspired by our clients to discover thoughtful and creative solutions that look beyond the needs of today to the opportunities of tomorrow. This rebranding is not a change in direction, but rather, an attempt to better define who we’ve always been and where we’re headed.

As we reflect on our past and anticipate our future, we’re thankful for our partners who have shared in our vision, passion and commitment.

Here’s to the future as we forge ahead together.
