Top Hat Engineering is a Tampa-based system integrator tackling the software gap in warehouse automation and optimization. Founded in 2023, Top Hat Engineering has built warehouse automation systems for leading logistics company throughout the US.
Podium partnered with Top Hat Engineering to deliver a series of build-to-print control panels for a large-scale warehouse automation project. After receiving engineering drawings, Podium proprietary design software identified UL 508A non-conformances and allowed its team of electrical engineers to provide recommended modifications within 24 hours to ensure compliance before production began. Once finalized, the panels were built ahead of schedule using CNC machining for all backplane and enclosure modifications and automated wire processing for over 80% of panel wiring, reducing build labor by 50% compared to typical industry standards while eliminating costly rework and inspection risk.
"Working with Podium has been an outstanding experience. Their team consistently demonstrates accountability, responsiveness, and a strong commitment to customer success. In addition to delivering high-quality work and reliable solutions, they have always been willing to support us during weekends and after-hours situations to help resolve issues and meet customer objectives. Their level of professionalism and dedication makes them a valued partner."
