From MNPS classrooms to careers: Enterprise Solutions invests in Nashville's future, Margaret Anne Byerly receives the Ingram Award. When Enterprise Solutions' Margaret Anne Byerly accepted the Ingram Award at PENCIL's Back to School Breakfast, she shared her gratitude for an honor that recognizes more than individual achievement. For the Nashville native and Enterprise Solutions leader, it also reflects a commitment to creating meaningful career opportunities for the next generation of Nashvillians. Margaret Anne has seen firsthand how Nashville has grown, and she believes everyone should have the opportunity to participate in that growth. That belief is at the heart of Enterprise Solutions' partnership with MNPS, which introduces students to careers in the skilled trades, engineering and related fields. Through weekly job-shadowing opportunities, MNPS students gain hands-on exposure to mechanical, electrical and plumbing (MEP) careers and engineering work at Enterprise's Integrated Design and Manufacturing (IDM) shop. But the partnership doesn't end with exposure: Enterprise also hires students directly from local high schools and provides a pathway to careers through its fully funded Work-Learn-Earn apprenticeship program. The four-year program allows employees to earn while they learn, building trade skills and leadership experience without taking on student debt. Since Enterprise launched its partnership with Overton High School in 2021, a growing number of MNPS graduates have joined the company and are developing into future leaders. At the Back to School Breakfast, Senior Director of IDM Bo DelGaicco introduced eight former MNPS students who are now part of Enterprise's team, including apprentices and prefab helpers from Whites Creek and Overton high schools. For Margaret Anne, their success represents exactly what workforce development can, and should, look like: opening doors, building skills and creating opportunities that can benefit students, their families and Nashville for generations to come. "It's not just about exposing students to a career," Margaret Anne said. "It's about giving them a foot in the door and setting them up for success."

A better BIM experience: how ATG earned Hawkeye Electric's trust. The challenge. Hawkeye Electric had a negative prior experience with an offshore BIM firm that created significant communication barriers. Their CEO made the call to find a new partner after the last project with that firm, citing the difficulty of working with a team on the other side of the world. They needed a stateside partner who was easy to reach, easy to work with, and could deliver reliable coordination support. * Project Goals Hawkeye Electric needed to complete electrical coordination modeling for Intel Design Campus in Chandler, Building CH3 (Project Denver), covering underground, levels, vertical risers, and roof. Deliverables included a coordinated Revit model, NWC exports, and coordination drawings at LOD 350. Solutions. ATG Business Development Executive Hunter Warring served as a trusted advisor to Hawkeye Electric, providing knowledgeable recommendations and strategic direction. ATG Construction Services team provided full electrical coordination modeling services on the Intel Design Campus project, including Revit modeling of electrical conduit, cable tray, light fixtures, panels, and equipment. The team attended weekly coordination meetings and delivered coordination drawings throughout the engagement. A change order extending the SOW through September 2026 was also executed to ensure full project completion. Business outcomes. The Intel project coordination was completed successfully. Pete noted that communication with ATG has been a 10 out of 10, a meaningful improvement over their prior experience. Hawkeye has since been acquired by Enterprise Solutions and is scaling significantly, with Pete citing ATG as the partner they would turn to when internal VDC bandwidth runs short on larger projects going forward. ATG has been a trusted partner for Hawkeye Electric for years. The ease of communication and having a stateside team made all the difference for ATG Company. When you are managing complex projects, you need a partner you can actually talk to, and ATG delivers that every time. Pete trowbridge. President.
