“We were very impressed by the level of collaboration and discovery in this year’s entries,” said Edison Universe Executive Director Frank Bonafilia. “Somehow, while facing the unprecedented challenges of this global pandemic, companies around the world figured out how to work safely and smartly and still innovate at an award-winning level.”
Transcend’s cloud-based SaaS platform, the Transcend Design Generator (TDG), fully automates the preliminary design of water and wastewater treatment facilities. TDG enables firms to create & deliver complete, innovative, & sustainable preliminary engineering proposals in hours, compared to hundreds or thousands using existing manual approaches.
“Preliminary engineering is a very time-consuming and labor-intensive process for any kind of vertical asset. It takes hundreds, sometimes thousands of manual hours for many engineers. This becomes a bottleneck for innovation in the industry. By automating that process, we can reallocate the engineering time and free up incredible creativity and brainpower to focus on customer needs.” Ari Raivetz, CEO
