Woodard and Curran recognized by ZweigWhite 2012 Hot Firm List

Woodard & Curran is one of the most successful engineering, architecture, and environmental firms in North America, coming in at 31st on industry observer ZweigWhite's 2012 Hot Firm List. The list recognizes the 100 fastest-growing architecture, engineering, planning and environmental consulting firms in the U.S. and Canada based on growth over a 3 year period. It is the 12th time in the 13-year history of the award that Woodard & Curran has made the list. Over the past 5 years, the firm has added 150 jobs and nearly its revenue to more than $120 million. This performance pushed Woodard & Curran up from 84th on the same list in 2011. The rankings are based on percentage and dollar value of revenue growth over the past three years. Woodard & Curran CEO Doug McKeown explained the firm's success this way, "Our people have done a remarkable job helping our clients get critical projects done during a period when many don't have the financial flexibility they would like. Our ability to help secure funding has been one big contributor to our continued growth, as has our commitment to treating our clients' problems like they are our own." Our core values of creating an enjoyable and challenging place to work, bringing our clients the services they need, and caring for the environment in all our decisions continues to create strong growth for the firm."
