The true economic impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the region’s specialty contractors has unfolded in stark terms. The 24 firms that responded to this year’s ENR MidAtlantic Specialty Contractor survey—which is based on 2020 revenue data in Delaware, Maryland, Pennsylvania, Virginia, West Virginia and the District of Columbia—reported a combined $2.8 billion in revenue, a 28.6% decline from the $3.6 billion reported by the 23 firms ranked last year. And last year’s total represented a 14.3% decrease compared with results from firms ranked in 2019.

排名第二，美国舒适系统增加了一年的收入。它记录了3.805亿美元的区域收入，高于上一年的3.5745亿美元，收益6％。该公司对去年排名的收入从2019年调查的区域收入中的3.6792亿美元下降了近3％。

排名第三的公司Rosendin Electric在百分比方面取得了更大的收益。该公司报告说，2020年中期大西洋工作的3.0634亿美元，比上一年的调查估算的2.8473亿美元增长了8％。

ENR Midatantic Prodec新利luckote年度最佳特殊承包商Helix Electric Inc.进行了价值9,900万美元的区域工作，在今年排名中排名第8。去年，该公司还以1.085亿美元的收入排名第8。

How do you believe the new infrastructure act will affect construction in the MidAtlantic?

IPC Lydon首席运营官Brandon Leach：Our firm is involved in the energy, transportation and water/wastewater markets. In the MidAtlantic, we think that the infrastructure plan will stimulate construction in these sectors as states will have the ability to utilize federal infrastructure funding for public works projects. A frequent occurrence of past projects in these sectors is that scope is reduced or deferred for budgeting purposes, and we hope the infrastructure bill will ignite a construction boom in the MidAtlantic region.

Jeromy Newton, Nickle Electrical Cos. vice president of operations:It will only add more pressure to an industry that is already dealing with major labor shortages and wage pressure to the likes of which none of us have ever seen before. Plus, the demand for products and lead times will only continue to increase while availability slips.

哪些部门提供了该地区最大的机会？

Leach:Transportation infrastructure, both airports and bridges, have been our biggest opportunities in the region. We predict that growth in these sectors will be exponential in the MidAtlantic over the next several years.

牛顿：高级生活和教育为我们地区提供了最大的机会。

哪些部门冷却了？

Leach:While our firm hasn’t experienced cooling in any one particular sector, what we have seen is projects that were in backlog being delayed in response to COVID. We’re slowly starting to see these projects return to the schedule.

哪些关键创新可以帮助您提高该地区的生产率或其他指标？

Leach:将技术的实施和集成到我们的项目中一直是我们作为一家公司最大的创新。18luck官网近年来，我们建立了基于云的软件在我们的工作地点上的安全性和发行文档，从而使对工作现场危害的实时反应，改善了沟通……以及从现场安全数据中即时访问分析。

牛顿：尼克（Nickle）一直在大量利用BIM来增强我们的制造工作。

您是否相信Omicron变体将对今年冬天的建设产生影响？如果是这样，您的公司如何为变体做准备？

Leach: We believe the impact of the Omicron variant in the winter will be much the same as COVID has been throughout the pandemic. We will have to deal with minor interruptions to labor continuity if a member of the workforce is a close contact or positive case. The protocols, procedures and PPE that we implemented early on in the pandemic have shown to be effective in keeping the impact to a minimum.

Where do you see the industry headed in the next year?

Leach:We forecast that we will see positive and impactful growth in the infrastructure sectors of the MidAtlantic. Supply chain issues being experienced across the industry have had the beneficial side effect of pushing contractors, vendors and owners into a more collaborative approach to projects.
我们期望这一趋势能够继续努力实现共同目标的多个项目利益相关者。

牛顿：有很多成长的机会th, but still not enough skilled tradespeople or product to fulfill them.
