CRA celebrates 10 years as one of Canada’s Best Managed Companies

Conestoga-Rovers & Associates (CRA) celebrates its tenth year as one of Canada’s Best Managed Companies for excellence in business performance. Sponsored by Deloitte, CIBC, National Post, Queen’s School of Business and MacKay CEO Forums, the Best Managed award recognizes Canadian owned and managed companies with revenues over $10 million for sustained growth, financial performance, management practices and the efforts of the entire organization.

CRA achieved Platinum Club member status with Canada's Best Managed Companies program by retaining its Best Managed designation every year consecutively since 2005.

Following its merger with GHD in July 2014, CRA is one of the world’s leading professional services companies providing engineering, environmental and construction services to private and public sector clients. Together, CRA and GHD have created a connected global network of more than 8500 people and 200+ offices across five continents and the Pacific Region.

Steve Quigley, CRA Principal, says, “CRA is honored and proud to be among the distinguished group of Platinum Club members. Our formula for success is simple – we build strong relationships, exceed the expectations of our clients and create lasting community benefit. Our reputation and ability to perform are based on the technical leadership of our people and their commitment to high standards of safety, quality and ethics. Most important to us is our shared culture and values of teamwork, respect and integrity.”

Steve continues, “With offices across Canada, from Vancouver to St John’s, we are also committed to making a difference to communities around us. CRA is especially proud of our people’s contributions to various charitable and community organizations, through both volunteer work and personal financial donations. Thanks to our merger with GHD, we are able to bring talent and local resources to serve clients around the world. Our combined company now has 4000 people in North America, with major presence in Australia, Chile, China, New Zealand, Philippines, Qatar, the UAE, the UK and the USA.”

“I would like to congratulate CRA and its entire workforce. Achieving this standard of excellence takes a united effort from a dedicated team,” says Peter Brown, National Co-Leader of Canada’s Best Managed Companies Program and Senior Practice Partner, Deloitte.

CRA’s signature projects in Canada include the Beauharnois Bridge in Québec, the Pan Am Aquatics Center in Ontario and emergency response to the Lac-Mégantic Derailment in Québec.
