Specialty contractors are, by their nature, a varied lot.
 
Most often, it's best to know the best, whether they are the best in concrete, carpentry, electrical or coverings. Through the rest of August, ENR Southwest will analyze the information provided to us by firms for the specialty contractors survey. We will then publish the results — including market sectors, type of work, specialties and more — in the next issue in September.
 
In that issue, we also will feature the Southwest region’s Top Specialty Contractor, as chosen by the regional editors of Engineering News Record. The selection will be announced here in the next week or so.
 
Until that time, we would like to identify the firms that participated in the survey, listed alphabetically. You’ll have to check back in September to see how they actually ranked this year. For questions, comments please reach me at ENRSouthwestEditor@bnpmedia.com
