Companies are judged on their year-over-year revenue and overall consecutive growth. QBE’s three-year compound annual growth rate for the review period of 2009-2011 was 126.6 percent.

Since 2011, QBE has experienced 300 percent growth in personnel and nearly 100 percent growth in revenue. This past March, the firm was awarded a $50 million blanket purchase agreement to assist the U.S. Army with architecture and engineering services.
