The available results do not allocate revenue to the four end-markets, so their approximate contributions cannot be established.[12](https://app.finbar.com/go?id=P134677113)[13](https://app.finbar.com/go?id=P134677114)

## Company history

WSP Global traces its origins to GENIVAR, which was formed in Quebec in 1993 through mergers and acquisitions. In 2012, GENIVAR acquired the UK-based consultancy WSP, creating a group with about 15,000 employees at the time. It adopted the WSP Global name in January 2014 and acquired Parsons Brinckerhoff later that year. [1](https://www.wsp.com/en-gb/who-we-are/our-history)

The acquisition of Golder in 2021 expanded the company’s environmental and earth-science expertise. POWER Engineers joined WSP in 2024, extending its power and energy capabilities. [1](https://www.wsp.com/en-gb/who-we-are/our-history)
