Our History
Ed Sauter established the firm now managing concrete industry trade associations beginning in 1992. He has served as the Executive Director to the membership of the Tilt-up Concrete Association (1992) and the Concrete Foundations Association (1993) for more than 20 years. During this tenure, the firm has evolved by assembling a confident and talented team to broaden the services and structure of the association clients as well as setting the stage for the current vision and unforeseen needs of a global industry and membership.
