About emds

our story

Outside of E&M Design Solutions Office in Fremont, MI

E&M Design Solutions has provided project management, construction management, documentation, and design/drawings since the founder, Cheryl Lyttle, started the company in 2008.  Since that time, EMDS has grown to offer a broader range of services that now include manufacturing skills, leadership and safety training, compliance consulting and preparation in quality and industrial services.

In 2022, Summer Thompson purchased the business after 10 years of service as a Sr. Project Manager and Business Project Manager.  Recently, E&M Design Solutions has a Director of Safety joining our team, and we have scaled our safety services to include enforcement walkthroughs, safety program development, hazardous work permitting, Lock Out/Tag Out, and audit compliance.

A large percentage of our customer base consists of repeat customers, some of which continue to rely on our employees to support key technical elements for long-term projects and programs.  When you work with EMDS, we become part of your team, which allows us to provide better service because we know the people, processes, and outgoing product objectives.  It also makes us proud to be such a strong service provider that we are considered part of  your company’s family.

Today E&M Design Solutions is a growing resource in the Midwest.  We continue focus on finding better ways to support our customers, identify opportunities to keep our costs down, and remain a best-value provider.
