Systems Contractor News (SCN) announces its annual list of the industry’s Top 50 Systems Integrators. The Top 50, which ranks firms from the U.S. and Canada, is determined by projected commercial systems integration revenue for 2017. All Top 50 submissions are voluntary. The information comes directly from integration firms who are willing to share their internal numbers.
According to the publication, the top five is practically identical to the 2016 list, with Ford AV coming in fifth and CCS Presentation Systems moving into the sixth slot. The biggest jump was Genesis Integration, which jumped from 49th all the way up to number 20. Also improving significantly were IES Commercial, which moved 17 places, from 39 to 22; Solotech, making the top 10 after landing at 18 last year; and Carousel Industries, taking over the 18 spot after checking in at number 25 last year. Other highlights include newcomers to the list, SKC Communications, coming in at 14, and Signet Electronic Systems, which just barely missed the list the last three years, finally making the cut at number 50.The publication also reports that commercial installation projected revenue experienced a big jump in the past year. In 2016, AVI-SPL, who was top of the list, projected revenue of $605 million, now $720 million. Diversified, second on the list, will go from $410 million to $600 million. These increases also reflect both firms completing major acquisitions. The industry as a whole has grown considerably from last year, with a projected $4.27 billion in commercial AV installation revenue. That’s an increase of about 12 percent year-over-year from last year’s projections of $3.82.
