EMCOR Group was ranked as the leading mechanical contractor based in the United States in 2018, generating around 3.5 billion U.S. dollars in revenue. Comfort Systems USA and ACCO Engineered Systems were ranked second and third respectively, meaning that the top three firms maintained their positions from the previous year.

Planning for the future The rankings are based on the revenue of the top specialty construction firms in the United States. The survey – topped by electrical contractor Quanta Services and closely followed by EMCOR Group – reported that around 11.2 billion U.S. dollars was made collectively in 2018. One indicator that highlighted the growth in the overall construction market was the increase in backlogs – the amount of work that companies have contracts for in the future.

EMCOR Group reported that the majority of its revenue were derived from general building markets.

Providing the full range of services Mechanical construction has been at the heart of EMCOR Group since the firm was formed in 1994 – their expertise in this sector earned them around 2 billion U.S. dollars in revenue more than the nearest competitor in 2018. There are, however, two other technical elements that are vital to any construction process: electrical and plumbing. During the planning and design stage of a project, it is important to consider all aspects of the mechanical, electrical, and plumbing (MEP) systems as a way of keeping costs to a minimum. Some construction contractors acquire other firms in order to strengthen their in-house MEP package, enhancing the service they can provide to clients. In 2016, EMCOR Group completed the acquisition of electrical contractor Ardent Services – increasing its electrical portfolio was rewarded with a high ranking among the leading electrical contractors in the United States.

Lendlease Group Limited, a multinational construction and property management company headquartered in Sydney, Australia, reported a total revenue of around 9.2 billion Australian dollars in the 2024 financial year. This represented a decline from the previous year's revenue of just over 10.2 billion dollars. Lendlease shifts strategy Lendlease was once a dominant force in the Australian construction industry, but since the COVID-19 pandemic, the company has struggled financially. In the 2024 fiscal year, the company reported a substantial profit loss after tax of around 1.5 billion Australian dollars. This loss underscores the complex operating environment for construction firms, even those with a global presence. As a result, in May 2024, Lendlease announced its intention to sell its overseas operations in Asia, Europe, and the Americas and focus solely on its domestic operations in Australia by late 2025. Australia’s construction industry workforce As of November 2024, over 1.36 million people were employed in Australia’s construction industry, continuing the upward trend since 2021. The building installation services sector leads with the highest workforce across construction-related industries, with around 318,300 employees. Building completion services was the second-largest sector by number of people in its workforce. Despite the increase in the construction industry's workforce size in recent years, the industry still struggles with a skilled worker shortage and fluctuating construction labor productivity index (LPI).
