Huada Group

Huada Design Group (hereinafter referred to as "Huada Group"), founded in 1960, is a leading full-process consulting technical service provider in China. Formerly known as Jiangsu Provincial Transportation Planning and Design Institute, it was listed on the Shanghai Stock Exchange in 2014 (Huada Group, 603018), becoming the first engineering design company in A-shares to be independently listed. Huada Group has more than 5,400 employees globally, ranking 3rd among the "Top 100 Enterprises in Survey and Design Revenue in the National Survey and Design Industry" and 49th in ENR's "Top 150 Global Engineering Design Firms". It holds top-tier industry qualifications including comprehensive consulting, comprehensive survey, comprehensive design, and Class A urban-rural planning (i.e., "Three Comprehensive and One Class A"). The company has won over 620 national, provincial (ministerial) awards in consulting, survey, design, and technology, as well as more than ten international awards such as the Arthur Hayden Award from the International Bridge Conference, the Centennial Project Award from the International Federation of Consulting Engineers, the Outstanding Achievement Award from the American Society of Civil Engineers, and the Excellent Engineering Award from the British Construction Association.

Since its listing, Huada Group has focused on two major infrastructure sectors: transportation and urban-rural development. Leveraging its high-level qualifications and comprehensive professional expertise, the company adheres to integrated development across multiple disciplines and industries, expanding from Jiangsu to the whole country, from planning and design to full-lifecycle services, and from infrastructure to emerging fields such as smart technologies, environmental protection, new energy, low-altitude economy, prefabricated construction, commercial consumption, and rural revitalization. It holds numerous industry hidden champions and technology brands in market segments including transportation planning, all-terrain highways, thousand-meter-span river-crossing bridges, ultra-long underwater tunnels, waterway ports, urban expressways, urban rail transit, and water conservancy and water affairs, becoming the only engineering consulting and design group in China with comprehensive design capabilities across the entire transportation industry (highway, railway, waterway, and aviation).

Currently, Huada Group is actively exploring new paths for high-quality transformation and development around "digitalization, industrialization, platformization, and internationalization". Taking data as a key production factor and driven by new-generation information technologies such as big data, artificial intelligence, the Internet of Things, and cloud computing, the company strives to build full-scenario, full-process digital and SaaS-based delivery capabilities, continuously leading and promoting the digital transformation and reform of China's transportation industry. Centering on the full innovation process of "market insight - technology R&D - achievement transformation - industrialization", it reshapes corporate strategy, business forms, and business models, shifting from business chains to value chains, and from factor-driven to innovation- and capital-driven growth, creating a second growth curve for Huada. It builds three cooperation ecosystems: government-enterprise, university-enterprise, and industry, along with efficient and agile business front-end, supporting middle-end, and strategic back-end, continuously improving global resource integration and layout capabilities around "One Huada, One Brand, One Standard".

In the future, Huada Group will continue to uphold the two major strategies of "Going Global" and "Excellence and Ultimate", shoulder the corporate mission of "Making the world more connected and cities more livable", and take the "Striver" culture as its internal driving force. It aims to strengthen its foundation for high-quality and sustainable development, committed to becoming a top-tier technical service provider for transportation development and urban construction, and building an innovative enterprise platform with planning and design as its entry point.
