CHICAGO, June 28 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Technology Solutions Company (TSC) (NASDAQ:TSCC) , a leading consulting firm, announced today the development of a new and fully integrated Enabling Driver for Growth & Efficiency (EDGE) package solution for SAP that is designed to help Industrial Machinery & Components (IM&C) companies increase operational and manufacturing performance by focusing on value stream speed and eliminating waste.
