EBJ recognized Rincon with a Business Achievement Award in the Mid-Size Firms category for another year of paced revenue growth, expanded services, and growth with core clients across 13 offices in California. Gross revenue grew 8 percent, to nearly $40 million, with nearly 100 percent growth over the past five years. Notable achievements for 2019 included expanding in the energy market sector by being awarded $6.6 million in renewable energy projects, being the number one greenhouse gas (GHG) verification body for the California Air Resources Board, and adding strategic hires, including a Los Angeles region manager.

CCBJ recognized Rincon with an Advancing Best Practices: GHG Analysis Award for CAPDash, the Climate Action Plan implementation tool.
