ENR Texas & Louisiana has named electrical subcontractor Walker Engineering as its 2017 Specialty Contractor of the Year.

Nearly 250 of the region’s top construction professionals attended ENR MidAtlantic’s Best Regional Project Awards on Nov. 1 at the Sheraton Inner Harbor in downtown Baltimore. 

With 28% growth in regional revenue, 2015 was a GEM of a year for Steve Johnson and his colleagues.

The Dec. 26 issue of ENR MidAtlantic will feature Atlantic Constructors Inc. as the Specialty Contractor of the Year. The issue will also feature the entire list of the top-ranked specialty contractors based on 2015 revenue. The 18 participating firms from Delaware, Maryland, Pennsylvania, Virginia, West Virginia and the District of Columbia reported a total of $2.4 billion of revenue in the region during 2015.

As results from the region’s top specialty contractors began to roll in, it quickly became clear GEM Inc. deserved serious consideration as the ENR Midwest Specialty Contractor of the Year.

Every year, we here at ENR Midwest compile and share data from the region’s leading specialty contracting firms, based on activity from the previous year in Indiana, Illinois, Michigan, Missouri, Ohio and Wisconsin.
