Professional Services Management Journal

The 2008 PSMJ A/E Financial Performance Survey indicates thatprofits are now being squeezed as overhead costs increased faster

than net revenues. In addition, many firms in the lower quartile (25thpercentile) continue to struggle as economic conditions point to anear-term slowdown.

A good snapshot of how the design industry has performed ispresented in Figure 1 (see page 3). This chart indicates the variation in direct labor, overhead costs, and profit as a function of direct laborhours over the past 12 years. It shows that profits were squeezed inthe mid-1990s, followed by greater prosperity until 2002 when theimpact of a downturn hit the industry. Between 2004 and 2007, firmswere able to raise prices, hold the level of overhead costs steady, andgenerate higher profits.
