About
Founded in 1985 by professionals from the chemical and mining industries, Electro Design Engineering, Inc. (EDE) brings over three decades of heavy-industry electrical expertise to Memphis, TN, backed by a staff of more than 300 engineers, programmers, technicians, and field personnel. For facility managers and property owners overseeing industrial, warehouse, or large commercial facilities in the Memphis metro, EDE delivers an integrated suite of services that spans engineering and design, industrial electrical construction, and control systems integration — all under one roof. EDE's engineering group handles full project lifecycles from conceptual budget estimates through final commissioning, covering power and distribution design, lighting and grounding systems, cable tray layouts, motor controls, instrumentation, and complete bid packages. This makes EDE a single-source partner for capital improvement projects, design-build delivery, and complex electrical upgrades common in manufacturing and processing environments. As a UL-listed panel shop, EDE fabricates custom control panels in-house — a critical capability for facility managers who need precision-built switchgear and motor control centers that meet NEC compliance standards without supply-chain delays. EDE's automation division specializes in PLC and DCS control system design, installation, and commissioning for continuous process, batch, and discrete manufacturing operations. Their network design, database historian, and VMware virtualization capabilities make them a strong choice for facilities requiring integrated power and process automation. The Memphis office at 1137 Kansas St serves as a regional hub within EDE's national footprint, with additional locations in Florida, Arkansas, Indiana, and Colorado — giving multi-site property managers and general contractors a consistent, coast-to-coast resource. Client experience spans food and beverage giants, utilities, and chemical processors, demonstrating the scale and complexity EDE routinely manages.
