The Development Potential of Engineering Consulting
1. Compared with developed countries, the charging standard of engineering consulting industry in China still has some room for improvement. In developed countries, engineering consultation has become a very important work before project investment. The engineering consulting fee in Germany accounts for about 7.5%-14% of the project cost; British engineering consulting fees range from 8.85% to 13.25%; The engineering consulting fee rate in the United States is between 6%- 15% (data source: Liaoning Engineering Consulting Network Electronic JournalNo. 15). In 2009, the operating income of China's survey and design industry only accounted for 3.05% of the total social fixed assets investment. It can be seen that the charging standard of engineering consulting industry in China still has some room for improvement compared with developed countries. 2. Compared with developed countries, the operating income of engineering consulting enterprises in China still has a lot of room for improvement. In 2009, the total operating income of the top 60 ENR engineering consulting enterprises in China was 80.742 billion yuan, while the total income of AECOM, the leading international engineering consulting enterprise, reached 665.438 billion dollars in 2009 (converted from 65.438+0 dollars to 6.58 yuan, which was 40,654.38+38 million yuan). It accounts for 49.7 1% of the income of the top 60 enterprises in engineering design. From the above statistics, there is still a big gap between the overall income level of China's engineering consulting industry and the international giants, which also shows that China's engineering consulting enterprises still have great development potential.
