Architecture and Engineering
The architectural and engineering services sectors are mature, fragmented, and competitive with few barriers to entry and high volatility of demand. The global recession severely impacted this vertical: design work in emerging markets and renovation in mature markets cushioned the industry to a certain degree but we believe global revenue growth to average close to zero for the ten years between 2007 and 2017 as a result of the recession. Architectural services revenue is estimated at $130 billion this year, with engineering services revenue estimated at $500+ billion globally.
While increasing demand for green buildings has created a niche that many firms have developed talent to exploit, a long, continuous decline of profit margins in both architecture and engineering poses a threat to the growth of this market- particularly in developed economies.
