What Stevens & Wilkinson does

Stevens & Wilkinson is an architecture and engineering firm founded in 1919 and headquartered in Atlanta, Georgia. The firm combined practices with Stang & Newdow Architects in 2003 and was merged into SSOE Group in 2021, at which point it ceased to operate as an independent entity and now sits within SSOE's Building Design Group. Operationally, the company delivers a design-driven, single-source integrated model that combines architecture, interior design, and full-service engineering (mechanical, electrical, structural, civil, plumbing, fire protection) with program/project management, commissioning, site evaluation, hazardous-materials consulting, and data/fire/security systems. The underlying technology stack is built on Building Information Modeling (BIM) using Revit, AutoCAD, the Autodesk Construction Cloud (ACC) enterprise platform (including the ACC AI Assistant for specification search), Autodesk Forma for early-stage environmental design, and Microsoft Copilot Edge / M365 deployed across the workforce.

The firm's go-to-market is sales-led and project-based, with revenue generated through quote-based professional services engagements via direct enterprise relationships. Client concentration is weighted toward Fortune 100 corporations and community institutions across industrial verticals (automotive, battery, chemical, data centers, semiconductor, food & beverage, pharmaceutical) and architectural verticals (airports/aviation, corporate workplace, healthcare, higher education, K-12, government/judicial, residential/hospitality/mixed-use, workforce development, and historic preservation). Select named clients include CaroMont Health, Georgia Tech (award-winning Glenn & Towers Residence Hall renovation), and Auburn University. The Building Design Group is supported by a global SSOE platform of 1,500+ employees across 19 offices in the U.S., India, and Mexico, and the group has received over 75 design awards over the past 20 years; the firm is also an AIA 2030 Commitment signatory targeting carbon neutrality. Monetization is professional-services fee-based with no publicly disclosed pricing or unit economics, and revenue is not separately reported given the post-2021 SSOE ownership structure.
