Editor's Note

From the Editorial Board
The AEC industry is in the middle of a transition that doesn't have a name yet. Federal DEI programs are being dismantled. The DBE recertification rules changed overnight. MWBE goals are being renegotiated at every agency. And through all of it, diverse firms are still showing up, still winning work, still building. Voices exists to document that. To make sure the firms doing the work get the credit, the visibility, and the platform they've earned. This is not a trade publication that covers the industry from the outside. This is the industry speaking for itself.
