History[edit]

Consulting-Specifying Engineer has existed since 1987 in its current form, a combination of two monthly, older publications: Consulting Engineer (dating back to 1952) and Actual Specifying Engineer (to 1958).

In April 2010, former owner Reed Business Information announced the magazine's closure; later that month, Control Engineering, Consulting-Specifying Engineer and Plant Engineering were acquired by a new company, CFE Media LLC.

As of September 2010, total BPA circulation was 46,714 engineer subscribers employed by consulting, engineer/architectural, design/build firms, or in-house engineers.
