The largest engineering firms in Kansas City employ more than 3,500 local licensed engineers in the counties of Jackson, Ray, Platte, Cass and Clay in Missouri; and Johnson, Wyandotte and Leavenworth in Kansas. The online version of this ranking expands beyond what appears in print; another 98 engineering firms are included in our digital rankings, in addition to the 21 featured in this week's print edition. This week's List continues a shift in our research methodology and philosophy, one that emphasizes more data and context for readers while better coordinating the resources available to us and our 40-plus sister publications under the American City Business Journals flag. This effort identified thousands of new local records — and cumulatively, tens of thousands of new businesses across ACBJ's footprint — last year alone. Information on The List was obtained through Kansas City Business Journal research or supplied by individual firms through questionnaires that KCBJ could not independently verify. In case of ties, firms are ranked by total employment and then listed alphabetically if ties remain. Additionally, engineering firms that did not respond to employment surveys but were still included on this year's List are sorted by estimated total employment figures derived from KCBJ archives; annual filings with the U.S. Department of Labor; and other firm-specific resources.
