Actalent Named to ENR’s Top 500 Design Firms List

Recognized as one of the top 100 U.S. firms by design engineering revenue

Hanover, Md. (June 5, 2024) – Actalent Services, a global leader in engineering and sciences services, and a business unit within Actalent, has ranked No. 57 on the Engineering News-Record’s (ENR) 2024 list of the Top 500 design firms. It also ranked No. 43 on ENR’s list of Top 100 pure design firms, defined as companies without construction revenue. The annual lists recognize the largest U.S.-based engineering firms by design services revenue from the previous year. Actalent Services provides project-based and outsourced solutions for companies around the world.

“Our ranking as one of the top U.S. design firms reflects the increased demand for our services capabilities over the last year,” said Greg DeLuca, vice president of Actalent Services. “We’ve been a leader in engineering design for many years, so it’s an honor to see that reflected in one of the industry’s most prestigious lists.”

Two core areas of business for Actalent Services are providing engineering services to utilities companies in the power industry, and to manufacturers in automotive, food and beverage, and consumer and industrial goods. Supported by engineers, designers, project managers and other specialists, Actalent Services’ expertise in the utilities sector helps organizations build and operate modernized power systems and better meet their customers’ energy needs. Its manufacturing, mechanical, and electrical engineering services teams similarly support clients’ smart manufacturing efforts (Industry 4.0), engineering analysis and design.

“The severe shortage for engineering talent requires companies to optimize what they keep in-house and what they outsource. We see our international and U.S.-based clients continue to seek us out to support their outsourcing needs,” said Maxim Castelino, managing director of Actalent Services’ global transmission, distribution and grid automation practice. “Particularly in the utilities sector, our success is a testament to our industry-leading, full-service outsourced capabilities across transmission, distribution and grid automation including strategic consulting, engineering and design services, project management and more.”

Amid the skilled labor shortage in engineering, Actalent is uniquely positioned to help, with two core business offerings intended to meet clients where they are. In addition to Actalent Services’ capabilities for project-based and outsourced work, Actalent’s talent solutions can also provide clients access to a deep network of contract engineering expertise.

“Economic and industry research shows how much companies are struggling to find the talent they need to execute on strategic projects and move their business forward,” said Chris Danler, managing director of Actalent’s engineering division. “Whether they require an outsourced solution from our services teams, or need contract talent who can work hand-in-hand with their in-house project teams, Actalent has a four-decade long legacy of getting engineering work done, so it’s excellent to see us earn this recognition from ENR as a top design firm.”
