Actalent Earns Additional ENR Rankings in Two Lists: Top 100 Professional Services Firms and Top Design Firms Sourcebook

Leading services provider recognized across its project management and engineering practices

Hanover, Md. (Aug. 12, 2025) – Actalent Services, a global leader in engineering and sciences services and a business unit within Actalent, earned top 10 rankings across three industry sectors—Transmission Lines and Cabling, Electronic Assembly, and Auto Plants—in Engineering News-Record’s (ENR) 2025 Top Design Firms Sourcebook. Actalent also ranked highly in the ENR 2025 Top Professional Services Firms list for its project management solutions.

Actalent’s 2025 ENR Sourcebook industry rankings are:

• #2 in Transmission Lines and Cabling
• #4 in Electronic Assembly
• #10 in Auto Plants
• #13 in Transmission and Distribution
• #23 in Manufacturing
• #28 in Power
• #30 in Telecom

Actalent’s 2025 ENR Top Professional Services rankings are:

• #32 in Program Management Firms
• #54 in Construction Management & Program Management-for-Fee Firms

ENR’s Top Lists annually recognize the leading U.S.-based architectural and engineering firms by design revenue in eight major industry sectors. ENR’s Top Professional Services ranking evaluates companies based on total revenue for construction management or project/program management services for a fee.

“It’s an honor to once again have our team’s work recognized by a leading industry publication like ENR,” said Ryan Cross, senior practice manager for Actalent Services’ Transmission Engineering Practice. “It’s a reflection of the trust clients place in us to deliver innovative, world-class engineering, design and utility support services that are essential for their businesses. We look forward to continuing and deepening these partnerships, especially at such a pivotal time for electric utilities undertaking grid modernization programs.”

The firm’s 2025 rankings improved across multiple categories, including Transmission Lines and Cabling, Transmission and Distribution, and Power. Actalent’s growth was especially notable in the Construction Management & Program Management-for-Fee Firms category, rising 12 spots, and the Program Management Firms category, rising four spots. It remained strong across its manufacturing business (Auto Plants/Automotive and Manufacturing). Earlier this year, Actalent Services was recognized on ENR’s Top 500 Design Firms List for 2025, ranking No. 62 globally and No. 51 on its list of Top 100 pure engineering design firms.

“In today’s complex businesses environments, companies rely on our project management solutions for visibility and control over increasingly complex and technical undertakings,” said Nate Kessen, Actalent’s project management practice director. “These rankings, and our growth, are a testament to the trust our clients place in us – clients that span the nation’s top food supply chain manufacturers, technology manufacturers, and utilities. We take pride in the relationships we’ve built and the reputation for excellence we’ve developed over 40 years of hard work.”
