SAN ANTONIO, Aug. 4, 2025 /CNW/ -- Frost & Sullivan is pleased to announce that BST Global has received the 2025 Global Company of the Year Award in the architecture, engineering, and consulting (AEC) project management industry for its outstanding achievements in innovation, performance, and customer impact. This top honor recognizes BST Global's leadership in transforming the AEC project management landscape through cutting-edge technology and a customer-centric business model.
Frost & Sullivan evaluates companies through a rigorous benchmarking process across two core dimensions: strategy effectiveness and strategy execution. BST Global excelled in both, demonstrating its ability to align strategic initiatives with emerging AEC market demands—such as increasing project complexity and skilled workforce shortages—while executing them with scale and precision.
Guided by a long-term strategy focused on digital transformation and customer satisfaction, BST Global has reshaped how AEC firms manage project performance. With AEC companies facing industry-wide challenges—from rising material costs and labor shortages to increasingly remote operations and outdated legacy systems—BST Global delivers intuitive, AI-powered solutions that reduce complexity, improve decision making, and increase productivity.
Innovation remains at the core of BST Global's approach. The company's AI-enabled project intelligence platform includes BST Insights, which leverages more than 35 discrete digital signals to provide real-time visibility into project health using net labor multiplier (NLM) as a predictive KPI.
"BST Insights predicts outcomes with a 95% or higher accuracy rate for qualified projects, enabling project managers and project directors to make meaningful changes to how their projects are resourced in real time, for example, identifying roles that can be staffed more cost effectively to better align with the economic footprint of the project," said Lynda Stadtmueller, Associate Partner, Information & Communications Technology, Frost & Sullivan.
BST Global also introduced BST Connect ™, a cloud-based iPaaS launched in 2024. It integrates seamlessly with systems such as Oracle CX and Microsoft Dynamics, enabling enterprise-wide connectivity.
"Earning this honor from Frost & Sullivan reflects the transformative work our team and our clients are doing together to redefine project management in the AEC industry," said Eileen M. Canady, Chief Marketing Officer at BST Global. "We're proud to lead with innovation—infusing AI and real‑time insights into project delivery—while never losing sight of what matters most: enabling our clients to thrive in an increasingly complex and competitive environment."
BST Global's consumer-grade mobile applications and Waze-inspired user interface reduce training time and accelerate user adoption. Whether clients are migrating from on-premises solutions or embracing BST Global's latest cloud-native platforms, the company supports them with tailored implementation, data migration, and ongoing reporting services to ensure a smooth, effective transition.
Frost & Sullivan commends BST Global for setting the standard in market responsiveness, ecosystem collaboration, and customer experience. The company's launch of the AI + Data Consortium in October 2024 further demonstrates its commitment to advancing the AEC industry through collective benchmarking and standard setting.
Each year, Frost & Sullivan presents the Company of the Year Award to a company that demonstrates outstanding strategy development and implementation, resulting in measurable improvements in market share, customer satisfaction, and competitive positioning. The honor recognizes forward-thinking organizations that are reshaping their industries through innovation and growth excellence.

FP Canada™ Announces June CFP® Exam and QAFP® Exam Results
Of the first-time writers who completed the CFP exam, 81% passed. Seventy-five per cent of first-time QAFP exam writers passed. TORONTO, Aug. 7, 2025 /CNW/ - FP Canada has announced the results for the June sittings of the Certified Financial Planner ® exam and the Qualified Associate Financial Planner ™ exam. There were 385 candidates who wrote the CFP exam (and 81% of the first-time writers passed), while 50 candidates wrote the QAFP exam (and the first-time writer pass rate was 75%). FP Canada administered a survey to all candidates who wrote the exams. According to that survey, 82% of CFP exam writers decided to pursue certification so they could enhance their skills and better serve their clients. The same was true for 76% of candidates pursing QAFP certification. Forty-nine per cent of CFP candidates and 48% of QAFP candidates indicated that provincial legislation requiring them to obtain an approved certification to use the "financial planner" title was a major motivator. Likewise, 30% of CFP exam writers and 24% of those who wrote the QAFP exam stated that their pursuit of certification was driven largely by an employer requirement. "We at FP Canada would like to sincerely congratulate everyone who successfully wrote the CFP exam or QAFP exam in June," says Tashia Batstone, President and CEO of FP Canada. "Completing this critical step toward certification is a tremendous accomplishment—one that brings you closer to being fully qualified to help Canadians find their paths to financial well-being." To obtain CFP certification, candidates must complete a comprehensive education program that includes professional education, pass a national exam, have (at minimum) a bachelor's degree or 10 years of qualifying work experience (or have held QAFP certification for at least five years), and demonstrate three years of qualifying work experience. QAFP certification candidates must complete a comprehensive education program, pass a national exam, have a post-secondary diploma or five years of qualifying work experience, and demonstrate one year of qualifying work experience. To maintain certification, CFP professionals must ensure their knowledge and skills remain current by completing 25 hours of continuing education each year, including two hours in the professional responsibility category. QAFP professionals must complete 12 hours of continuing education each year, including one hour in the professional responsibility category. CFP professionals and QAFP professionals must also adhere to high professional standards established by the FP Canada Standards Council ™. CFP certification and QAFP certification have been approved by the Financial Services Regulatory Authority of Ontario (FSRA) as valid credentials for individuals using the "financial planner" title in Ontario. Established in 1995, FP Canada is a national not-for-profit education, certification and professional oversight organization working in the public interest. FP Canada is dedicated to championing better financial wellness for all Canadians by leading the advancement of professional financial planning in Canada.
