"EDC has been a good source for us for finding expertise in areas that would otherwise be very difficult for us to find. Over the years, we've used several consulting firms and as we've used those firms, they are continually interested in “What's in it for me.” EDC has been just the opposite. They've been very helpful—it's 'What's in it for Heavy Equipment,' that's most important to EDC."
