<br /> p? Methodologies and Approaches Used in Achieving Tasks
<br /> ' Our management strategy and project approach is based on over five decades of implementing
<br /> ,co• projects throughout the South Florida community. Planning is a dynamic process, where
<br /> each step forms the basis for the next. It is a process of translating vision into a strategy,
<br /> evaluating alternatives, determining capacity, testing feasibility and setting a course of action.
<br /> And, while EDSA thrives on producing visionary concept plans, the critical part of revitalizing
<br /> a coastal community is defining an implementation strategy that works. Our true value lies in
<br /> our ability to plan, design and get work built.
