BOSTON, March 20, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Shawmut Design and Construction, a $2 billion national construction management firm, has reached a major milestone in New England, surpassing $1 billion in revenue in 2024—driven by larger, more complex projects and strong partnerships with long-standing and new clients. In response to this growth, Shawmut has strategically expanded its regional leadership team to ensure continued excellence in execution and client service.

Additionally, Shawmut expanded its regional footprint with a new Worcester office, reinforcing its commitment to central Massachusetts.
