Webinar previously titled, "The AE Firm Maturity Index".
Many AE firms make decisions based on intuition rather than data-driven insights, often overlooking critical performance metrics. Leveraging data from over 1,500 architecture and engineering firms, BQE has compiled a comprehensive report on industry best practices for key performance indicators (KPIs) that all firms should be monitoring. In this webinar, we will explore the findings of our Benchmarking Report and provide actionable strategies for firms to enhance their performance across each metric.
