Testimonials
NAPCO
Precast Producer
EDGE has been a game-changer for us at NAPCO Precast. We’ve been rolling it out step by step, and the results speak for themselves. Being able to show owners their projects in a 3D model has transformed the sales process—it builds trust, makes decision-making faster, and gives clients confidence in what they’re getting. It’s quickly becoming an essential part of how we do business.

Engineering Firm
We have implemented vertical integration into our services. This enhancement means that for any precast elements on our projects, we will utilize EDGE elements. This approach allows us to seamlessly transition into ticket processing if we acquire the detailing project after completing the design of the rest of the building.
Bill Bowers, Drafting Manager
DRLDD
Engineering Firm
The Edge team was very helpful in working out what solution best fit DRLDD. Once we found what worked best for us and software was purchased the training was tailored to our needs. They worked around our schedule to complete an extensive training which left us in a strong foundation.
Don Loew, Owner
PRESTRESSED CONCRETE CONSTRUCTION
Engineering Firm
After years of relying on AutoCAD and struggling with other 3D platforms, EDGE^R gave our team the breakthrough we needed. It empowered us to fully transition to Revit, streamline shop ticketing, and dramatically reduce errors — all with support that made training across generations a success. EDGE^R was the missing piece we needed to make Revit truly work for our team. It helped us transition from AutoCAD with confidence, improve accuracy, and accelerate our workflow like never before. We took a leap with EDGE^R, and it paid off. In just one year, we’ve fully transitioned from AutoCAD, trained team members across all ages, and significantly reduced errors — all while increasing efficiency and clarity in our shop drawings.

Precast Producer
Implementing Building Information Modeling for precast concrete systems, particularly architectural precast, is a challenging task. Even more challenging is doing it in a way that provides an efficient workflow for precast designers. Edge^R dramatically improves the process of modeling an entire precast project from concept to final production piece drawings. BIM for prefabricated building solutions doesn’t seem like such a tall mountain to climb anymore.
